Advanced Air renews ACSF Industry Audit Standard
Advanced Air is committed to providing the highest quality of service with the strongest commitments to safety and customer service, as witnessed by its renewal of IAS registry status.

Hawthorne, California-headquartered Advanced Air has renewed its status on the ACSF Industry Audit Standard (IAS) registry for the third time.

“We are pleased that Advanced Air continues to renew its status on the IAS registry,” says ACSF president Bryan Burns. “We congratulate it on its continued dedication, commitment and support of our standard.”

Advanced Air is proud to be a part of the ACSF registry and one of 17 companies that continues to meet this high standard,” adds president Levi Stockton. “The experience of having undergone the ACSF audit process left us with a much stronger, cohesive, and safe operation.”

The IAS is an extensive audit programme 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 programme 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 programme. The ACSF makes its operator registry and key company details available at no charge, so verification of IAS registration is quick and easy.
