The Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) is pleased to announce that Gama Aviation, Shelton, CT has renewed its status on the ACSF Industry Audit Standard (IAS) registry.

“We congratulate Gama Aviation on renewing its status on the IAS registry,” said ACSF president Bryan Burns. “This serves to demonstrate its commitment to continuous improvement.”

“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 Aviation's senior vice president and director of operations Charles Wolgast.

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.
