Pentastar's adherence to the highest safety standards has long been a top priority, and the company has recently renewed both its ARGUS Platinum rating and IS-BAO Stage 2 registration.

Michigan, US operator Pentastar Aviation Charter has successfully renewed its ARGUS Platinum rating and its Stage 2 IS-BAO registration following an in-depth audit conducted by ARGUS International and third-party IS-BAO accredited auditors.

Vice president of flight operations and director of operations Robert Rufli says: “Pentastar's achievement in maintaining the ARGUS Platinum rating and IS-BAO Stage 2 registration reflects our corporate culture of adherence to the highest safety standards. Maintaining compliance with these standards helps ensure quality and consistency in our daily operations and allows us to continuously enhance safety standards.”

Pentastar's operations have been Platinum rated since 2006 and IS-BAO registered since 2010. The company is also Wyvern registered and a member of the Air Charter Safety Foundation. President and CEO Greg Schmidt adds: “The safety of our customers and employees is paramount to our mission. Our operations revolve around a steadfast commitment to safety with ongoing adoption and continuous implementation of best practices. The renewal of the ARGUS Platinum rating and IS-BAO Stage 2 registration reflects that commitment.”
