Part 135 Ops Safety Data vs. 91
I recently posted on the charter forum at NBAA for asking WHY the data for turbine 135 ops is so bad relative to turbine 91 ops. Anyway...to make a long story short, we launched forum just for that at www.rsvpair.com, but I'd like to spark the debate here too. The irony is that Part 135 (air taxi ops) are "safer on paper" yet...not in actuality.
Does anyone have thoughts on:
a) auditing: ARGUS, WYVERN, etc.
b) "best practices"
c) IS-BAO certification
d) ISO - 9001 etc.
do any of these things work? will an air carrier ever bother or do them sincerely?
my thought is that only the big guys (NetJets et al) can afford this type of stuff.... is there a "poor man's" ISO 9001 that PROVES you have a culture of safety...yet doesn't cost an arm and a leg?
