We don't like to talk about it often, but when it comes to safety, business aviation doesn't have the perfect record. Anytime an accident happens, it affects the entire industry. A rising tide of safety keeps more planes in the air and makes the whole industry better.   Raising the bar of safety can feel like a nebulous concept, but it's a necessary conversation. While it's hard to pinpoint the areas that need to be addressed, we can start by building the right enforcement mechanisms and environments to correct problems.   How do we raise the safety standard without creating a finger-pointing or witch-hunting environment? What is the Air Charter Safety Foundation doing to bring safety to the entire niche?   In this episode, I'm joined by Sky Strategy columnist, co-chair of the Board of Governors at the Air Charter Safety Foundation and CEO of FlyVizor, Jessie Naor. She talks about how she built GrandView Aviation, and how to make business aviation safer.   We don't like to talk about it often, but we don't have a perfect record. If anyone has an accident, it affects all of us. -Jessie Naor   Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode    -Cutting down on acts of stupidity Illegal charters are one of the biggest causes of business aviation accidents. How do we create the right enforcement mechanisms and environments to correct the issues?   -Growth makes things easier How did GrandView Aviation go from a small company to 20 aircraft and 100 pilots? How did management approach growth and ultimately selling the business?   -Progress not punishment We continue to have accidents in business aviation, and it should be a concern to all of us. How do we create a reporting culture that doesn't feel like finger-pointing?   Guest Bio   Jessie Naor is the author of the Sky Strategy column in Aviation Week's BCA, Co-Chair of the Board of Governors at the Air Charter Safety Foundation and CEO of FlyVizor, an aviation M&A advisory and business consulting firm.
