Exec 1 builds on safety culture with Stage II
The parent of the IS-BAO effort is the International Business Aviation Council, which developed it as a code of best practices for the benefit of flight operations departments. Exec 1 has now achieved Stage II.

Exec 1 Aviation has obtained IS-BAO Stage II certification, following a successful year operating under Stage I.

“The successful audit and registration further defines our commitment to safety, our customers and the business aviation community,” says company president JR Boesen. “All of our employees are committed to delivering the highest level of service. Completing IS-BAO Stage II validates our commitment to maintaining our safety culture.

“With IS-BAO, our highly experienced management team and dedicated cockpit crews can continue to provide exceptional services nationwide in today’s business aircraft charter environment.”
