Privaira, a charter operator based in Boca Raton, Florida, is the latest company to join the Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF). It will also participate in the Aviation Safety Action Program (ASAP), created in cooperation between the ACSF and the FAA.

Along with 195 other member organisations, Privaira supports the ACSF's vision to advance and enable the highest levels of safety in personal and business aviation through the promotion and facilitation of risk management programmes.

CEO Clemens Vanderwerf states: “As a new member of the ACSF, we've become part of the larger aviation safety community and all of the interconnectedness that it offers. Safety is embedded in our culture, and is part of every aspect of our operation. ACSF members share experiences and safety topics that help them learn from one another, and we look forward to that mutual cooperation.”

ACSF president Bryan Burns adds: “As a charter operator that now joins hundreds of others in the ACSF, Privaira will benefit immensely from our laser focus on safety issues that affect the entire industry. We're very happy that it'll also be participating in the ACSF ASAP programme, which goes even further to identify and reduce possible flight safety concerns and mitigate risk.”
