Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) Expands Aviation Safety Action Program (ASAP) with Addition of Novus Jet Charter and Otter Air Services

Washington, DC, April 18, 2024 – The Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) is proud to announce the expansion of its Aviation Safety Action Program (ASAP) with the inclusion of two esteemed members, Novus Jet Charter (novusjets.com) based in Boca Raton, FL, and Otter Air Services (flyotter.com) located in Grand Rapids, MI. 

The Aviation Safety Action Program is a beacon of proactive safety measures in the aviation industry, playing a pivotal role in identifying and addressing potential flight safety concerns. Administered by the ACSF in collaboration with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), ASAP is renowned for its innovative, transparent, and self-reporting mechanism, allowing aviation operators to report, track, and resolve safety issues with the support of a third-party facilitator, without the fear of punishing or disciplinary actions. 

“With the addition of Novus Jet Charter and Otter Air Services to our esteemed ASAP program, we are further solidifying our commitment to enhancing safety standards within the aviation community,” remarked Bryan Burns, President & CEO of ACSF. “Both companies bring a wealth of experience and a strong safety culture to the table, aligning perfectly with our mission of fostering safety values and continuous improvement.” 

Novus Jet Charter, headquartered in Boca Raton, FL, boasts a reputation for excellence in private jet charter services, while Otter Air Services, based in Grand Rapids, MI, is renowned for its unwavering dedication to safety and operational excellence. 

The ACSF is confident that adding these two distinguished members will strengthen the ASAP program and contribute to the overarching goal of advancing safety practices across the aviation industry.
