Air Charter Safety

safety

Safety is of the utmost importance to us at Akamai Air in all our areas of Operation. Safety Management System (SMS) is becoming a standard throughout the aviation industry worldwide. It is recognized by the Joint Planning and Development Office (JPDO), International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), and civil aviation authorities (CAA) and product/service providers as the next step in the evolution of safety in aviation. SMS is also becoming a standard for the management of safety beyond aviation. Similar management systems are used in the management of other critical areas such as quality, occupational safety and health, security, environment, etc.

At Akamai Air have implemented our own SMS that is "Akamai" (smart) in the type of operations hat we conduct. Taking in to effect actual, expected and probable operating factors that can and could have influences on each flight leg.

about safety

  • Its All About Safety

    Safety has always been our highest priority for both our customers and Pilots.   Akamai Air believes safety is not going to happen on its own, but has to be planned for and executed so. That is why we have implemented a Safety Management System (SMS). That takes every aspect of an individual flight from its early planning stage to its safe arrival at its destination.

     

    By recognizing Akamai Air' role in accident prevention, SMSs provide to both us and our customer :

  • We take Air Charter Safety very Serious

    A structured means of safety risk management decision making. A means of demonstrating safety management capability before system failures occur. Therefore ensuring a extreme safety net for all!

safety programs

Safety begins from both the top down and the bottom up. Everyone from the receptionist, ramp worker, pilot, manager, and FAA Inspector has a role to perform.

SMS is all about decision-making. Thus it has to be a decision-maker's tool, not a traditional safety program separate and distinct from business and operational decision making.

 

Please call and ask us for any information or questions on our SMS program.

useful information

NTSB, TSA and the FAA do not require most air charter companies to have an SMS however we choose to implement one for the safety of our passengers and flight crews.

However many international destinations/countries are starting to require Air Charter operators to have a SMS in place. So next time you fly ask the company if they have an "SMS program" in conjunction with their operations.
