M&N Aviation Achieves ACSF Registered Status

The Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) welcomes M&N Aviation of Casper, Wyo., as the latest addition to the ACSF Industry Audit Standard (IAS) Registry. M&N joins 12 operators that have completed the IAS audit and achieved Registered status with the ACSF.

“M&N Aviation is committed to safety and quality assurance in all areas of our operations,” said John Martin, Owner and Chief Executive of M&N Aviation’s Charter Operations. “Safety is by far the most important aspect of our business, second to none.”

The IAS, conducted every 24 months, 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 in-depth in its evaluation of regulatory compliance and the operator’s SMS program.

“The ACSF certification is a testimony to our culture and our commitment to make our flight operations the safest in the industry,” Martin said.

The ACSF is scheduled to conduct 30 audits of Part 135 operators this year using the IAS. The program continues to grow as more operators seek IAS registration. The goal is to have IAS recognized as the universal benchmark for Part 135 and 91K operators.

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.
