Considered as one of the industry’s most stringent certifications, the Wyvern
Certification is based on an on-site safety audit, measuring charter and FO
operators against a benchmark called the Wyvern Operating Standards, an
enhanced set of safety measurement criteria developed over the years in
cooperation with a panel of representatives from the most sophisticated and
demanding corporate flight departments in the world.
The stringent certification process set in place by Wyvern Consulting represents
a robust template of meaningful expectations for safe flight catering exclusively to
VIP & VVIP aircraft operations for CEO’s and senior management of Fortune
500® companies, senior military delegates, heads of state, and world leaders.
Recognizing Club One Air for its outstanding ground services, timely arrivals and
departures, low transit times at airports, world class in flight services, stringent
aircraft maintenance schedules, high air-safety standards and disciplined cockpit
crew, Wyvern Consulting now places India’s first fractional ownership company
into the elite list of top-notch aviation companies worldwide.
Wyvern recommended aircraft operators today are appreciated and respected for
a remarkably low accident, incident and fatality rate. Statistics reveal that of all
754 fatalities that were recorded from 1991 to 2003 by executive jet operators,
none (0.00%) involved Wyvern recommended aircraft.
Commenting on Club One Air receiving the globally recognized Wyvern
Certification, Mr. Manav Singh, Club One Air’s Managing Director had this to say,
“Since Club One Air commenced Fractional Ownership operations in the South
Asia region we have always believed in maintaining the highest possible
standard for air-safety and aircraft operations. The Wyvern Certification further
substantiates our commitment for offering the best possible service to
customers”.

Aircraft Fractional Ownership By Club One Air
Club One Air, Asia's first Aircraft Fractional Ownership company has launched its services in Mumbai. It will provide Mumbai's industry captains a chance to own an aircraft at a fraction of the actual cost and run it as per their own requirement.
A popular concept in the West, Fractional Ownership gives aircraft shareowners a sense of 'ownership' and also gives fractional and legal rights commensurate to their share. The advantage of Fractional Ownership is the ability to fly when one wants to and where.
The company unveiled its exclusive fleet to service the Mumbai market. The fleet in Mumbai includes Cessna Citation II aircraft and two brand new Augusta 119 Helicopters. Club One Air's fleet currently comprises nine aircraft. The fleet is made up of five executive, business jets of Citation Excel and Citation 2 series aircraft and two brand new Augusta helicopters, a Turboprop King Air 200 and Eurocopter EC 130.
Club One Air was launched in North India in August last year. The company has since then added seven more carriers to its portfolio. The company recently launched its Jet Card programme, a convenience card for high net worth individuals.
