Dominion Aviation Services And DB Aviation Achieve ACSF Audit
Registered Status
The Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) said Thursday it has
added Dominion Aviation Services, Inc., of Richmond, Virginia, and
DB Aviation, Inc., of Waukegan, Illinois, to the ACSF Industry
Audit Standard Registry (IAS). There are now 25 operators that have
completed the IAS audit and achieved Registered status with the
ACSF.
"The ACSF has set a standard of excellence unparalleled in the
industry," said Frank Vondrak, director of operations for DB
Aviation, Inc. "We're honored that our commitment to safety and
security has been recognized, and we will continue to ensure that
the best practices outlined by the ACSF will be at the forefront of
our operation."
The IAS is an all-inclusive audit tailored for Part 135 and 91K
operators that acts as a detailed gap analysis of an operator's
management practices. The audit program consists of a thorough
review of an operator's processes and procedures, regulatory
compliance, and the operator's implementation of and adherence to a
safety management system.
"Dominion Aviation has the shared attitude among our team
members that safety above and beyond what is considered regulatory
must be a core value of our industry," said Thomas T. "Mike"
Mickel, president and CEO of Dominion Aviation, Inc. "The addition
of being accepted to the Air Charter Safety Foundation Industry
Audit Standard Registry heightens the validity of our philosophy.
We are very pleased to have the support of ACSF in our commitment
to safety."
