Both private aircraft and their crews must comply with the same high levels of safety as scheduled airlines and take safety very seriously. In order to operate private jet charter flights, aircraft operators have to, by law, complete a thorough process by which they satisfy the relevant country's Aviation Authority that they are competent to secure the safe operation of aircraft. This process audits such areas as company safety policy, management and organisational competence, crew training, aircraft maintenance, aircraft loading, flight planning and fuel planning amongst many other matters. If this set of stringent requirements is met, an Air Operator Certificate (AOC) will be granted.
