Washington, DC, July 12, 2021 — The Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF.aero) is pleased to announce that Mayo Aviation (mayoaviation.com), based in Denver, Colorado, has renewed its status on the ACSF Industry Audit Standard (IAS) Registry.
The ACSF 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 Safety Management System (SMS), against both Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and international standards.
ACSF President Bryan Burns congratulated the aviation company on its successful IAS renewal. “This is Mayo Aviation’s sixth ACSF audit,” he noted. “They have once again demonstrated their continued commitment to high standards by renewing their status on the IAS Registry.”
“Mayo Aviation recognizes the incredible importance of providing the highest level of aviation safety, and commends our team for a sixth successful ACSF renewal,” said William “Bill” Mayo, the company’s CEO. “We have built our corporate culture around continuous improvement of our safety systems, and we use the ACSF audit as a benchmark that we strive to elevate each time our company is evaluated.”
Aviation customers are encouraged to seek out the ACSF IAS registered logo and to urge 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 acsfdev.com/registry.
