ExecuJet’s Berlin facility this week became the first FBO in Germany to achieve certification under the International Standard for Business Aviation Handling (IS-BAH). A joint program between International Standard for Business Aircraft Handling (IBAC) and the National Air Transportation Association (NATA), IS-BAHincorporates a safety management system in all aspects of FBO operations and is structured on the earlier International Standard for Business Aircraft Operations (IS-BAO).
“Receiving IS-BAH accreditation is a great achievement for our FBO and ground handling team,” said Sigrun Leidel, the FBO’s general manager. “It is becoming increasingly important for business aviation operators to seek verification of the level of proficiency of its business aircraft handling, and IS-BAH provides an excellent means of meeting safety management system requirements.” Last month, the ExecuJet facility in South Africa became the first in Africa to receive the IS-BAH stamp of approval from IBAC.
