EJM Makes ACSF Industry Audit Standard Registry

The Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) is pleased to announce the addition of Executive Jet Management (EJM) of Cincinnati, OH, to the ACSF Industry Audit Standard (IAS) Registry.

The ACSF has worked closely with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and international interests to ensure that the audit accomplishes two key functions - first, to verify an operator's compliance with regulatory requirements, and, secondly, to evaluate the level of compliance with recognized Safety Management System standards.

The overall objective of the IAS program is to eliminate the need for the multiple audits that Part 135 and 91K operators presently undergo and replace them with a single, universally accepted audit standard.

"We are pleased to be among the operators that have successfully completed the ACSF audit program," said Robert Garrymore, president, Executive Jet Management. "We appreciate all the hard work the EJM staff has put into completing this comprehensive audit process, and we look forward to continuing our work with the ACSF." 

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. 

Supporting materials are available at www.acsf.aero/audit. Operators wishing to initiate the audit process should contact Russ Lawton at 1-888-SAFE-135 (888-723-3135).
