“We are exceedingly proud to announce that Talon Air is now rated Platinum by Aviation Research Group/US,” says Talon Air founder, owner and pilot Adam Katz. “This impressive evaluation only strengthens our dedication to guaranteeing clients the safest, most efficient and pleasurable luxury air travel experience.”
The ARG/US-administered rating focuses on three major criteria: historical safety ratings, current aircraft and pilot background checks. Following a rigorous and comprehensive analysis of each area, ARG/US awards a safety rating of Does Not Qualify (DNQ), Silver, Gold, Gold+ or Platinum to Part 135 operators that meet or exceed these criteria. To attain Gold+ or Platinum, an on-site safety audit is required. Platinum is the highest level of ARG/US safety ratings available. The ARG/US audit is a true process with systems safety audit administered by trained and experienced aviation auditing professionals to evaluate the operator against industry best practice standards. A Platinum rating requires a functioning Safety Management System, a clear and workable Emergency Response Plan, and appropriate written standards, implementation, and records for all major aspects of Operations and Maintenance within a flight department or charter company.
