Fair Wind celebrates 20 years as Wyvern Wingman
Fair Wind is excited to renew its certification and proudly celebrates 20 years of Wyvern Wingman status.

Stuart, Florida-headquartered Part 135 operator Executive Air Charter of Boca Raton, dba Fair Wind Air Charter, has once more secured its designation as a Wyvern Wingman certified operator following a successful audit conducted by Wyvern in January 2023.

“Fair Wind is excited to renew this certification and proudly celebrates 20 years of Wyvern Wingman status, which underscores and symbolises our strong commitment to industry best practices and safety standards,” says managing partner and COO Alexander H Beringer.

The Wyvern Wingman standard, the first air charter audit standard in the aviation industry, provides a safety benchmark that allows air charter customers to assess performance expectations against recognised industry best operating practices before purchasing air charter services.

Wyvern Wingman operators are evaluated by the Wingman Standard criteria. The scope of the evaluation includes an assessment of operational activities, review on the company operational history and safety records, safety management system (SMS), internal evaluation programme, administrative compositions, technical documentation, pilot and aircraft records, training requirements and maintenance operations including technician training and experience.

Wyvern celebrates Fair Wind Air Charter's achievement. Successful completion of the Wingman audit is proof that its leadership has identified safety as a core value and its team embraces excellence at all levels,” says Wyvern CEO Sonnie Bates.
