Gama Aviation endorsed with Wyvern safety approval across all of its regions
Gama Aviation, the international business aviation services company, headquartered at Farnborough Airport, UK, has achieved Wyvern approval across all of its affiliated operating bases – in Europe, the Americas and the Middle East, thus demonstrating a continued commitment to aviation safety. Wyvern’s globally recognised seal of aviation safety excellence, ‘The Wyvern Standard’ is the leading quality audit standard developed in conjunction with the most sophisticated and demanding corporate flight departments in the world.
As a Wyvern approved operator, Gama maintains strict safety programmes which Wyvern audits annually and monitors throughout the year. The rigorous on-site safety audit evaluated Gama against a set of enhanced safety criterion that far exceeds the regulatory requirements for air charter, flight operations and maintenance.
Dave Edwards, Gama’s Managing Director said, “Wyvern represents one of the most strict independent safety and quality standards in business aviation. That fact that Gama has now achieved that around the globe is an excellent reward for the hard work and effort that goes into our proactive safety culture. It’s a pleasing recognition from one of the leading audit organizations."
