GAMA CHARTERS MAKES ACSF INDUSTRY AUDIT STANDARD REGISTRY
Alexandria, VA, February 11, 2014 — The Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) is pleased to announce that Gama Charters, Inc., Stratford, CT has joined the ACSF as a member and has been added to the ACSF Industry Audit Standard (IAS) Registry.
“By successfully completing the IAS, Gama Charters has demonstrated their commitment to high standards,” said ACSF president Bryan Burns. “We congratulate them on their dedication.”
“We would strongly recommend the adoption of this standard to any organization looking toward continual improvement and the ability to ensure scalability for future growth,” said Gama Charters’ director of operations Tom Miller.
The IAS is the first and only extensive audit program specifically created for on-demand operators by a committee of Part 135 and 91K industry leaders. It is conducted every 24 months and is in-depth in its evaluation of regulatory compliance and the operator’s SMS program against both FAA and international standards.
Customers should look for the ACSF IAS registered logo and encourage their preferred charter provider to participate in the program. The ACSF makes its operator registry and key company details available at no charge, so verification of IAS registration is quick and easy. Charter consumers can view the registry at www.acsf.aero/registry.
