Sonoma Jet Center and Carlsbad Jet Center, Californian FBOs based at Charles M. Schulz Sonoma County airport and McClellan-Palomar airport respectively, have achieved certification as Wyvern Wingman PRO FBOs. This milestone reflects each organisation's dedication to operational discipline, structured risk management and a mature safety culture.

Wingman PRO certification validates more than compliance. It recognises organisations that embed safety into daily operations. Through a comprehensive evaluation process, both jet centres demonstrated strong oversight practices, defined accountability structures and a proactive approach to continuous improvement. Clients can have confidence that operational standards are not only documented, but actively lived.

“Our team is honoured to have earned the first Wyvern Wingman PRO certification,” says Josh Hochberg, CEO of Sonoma Aviation, the parent company of the two FBOs. “It is an incredible recognition of our daily commitment to safe operations and the strong safety culture we have built to help our team and our operations continuously improve.”

The Wyvern Wingman standard is globally recognised as a trusted framework for evaluating aviation service providers. The certification review included an in-depth assessment of each location's SMS, emergency preparedness, training programmes, risk controls and organisational safety culture.

“Through leadership, dedication and a strong safety-first mindset, Sonoma Jet Center and Carlsbad Jet Center have proven themselves a standout in the FBO industry,” says Andy Day, Wyvern's chief operating officer. “We are thrilled to recognise their success and welcome them as the first Wyvern Wingman PRO FBO members.”
