Operational Excellence Beyond Audits
The WYVERN Flight Leader Program elevates beyond traditional methods and presents a progressive way for operators to achieve Wingman™ and Wingman PRO™ certification. Whether your operation has been Wingman™ certified for many years or if you are seeking to become Wingman certified, the Flight Leader Program provides the pathway to safety excellence.
The Wingman™ Standard is based on ICAO standards for commercial air transport, Safety Management International Collaboration Group’s (SMICG) standards for SMS, and industry best practices that are common amongst the most sophisticated operators around the world.
At its heart, the Flight Leader Program is about culture, professionalism, and human performance – at your operation and in the industry. The program’s focus includes a high degree of emphasis on human and organizational factors – frequently overlooked aspects of the safety ecosystem cited as contributing or causal in 80% of serious incidents/accidents.
Meeting and collaborating on a quarterly basis, your safety team works with a WYVERN Flight Leader Coach – a seasoned industry safety veteran, whose expertise can bring new and dynamic approaches to the challenges most operators face. Over and above traditional methods, your Flight Leader Coach collaborates with you, custom-tailoring the focus areas that will best suit your operation. Further, your Coach will enable the cross-pollination of industry best-practices between operators, and also help avoid pitfalls that might not otherwise be recognizable.
