Paragon Aviation Group continues its unwavering commitment to safety by funding an Online Safety Officer (OSO) Program for all network FBOs worldwide for the fourth consecutive year.
The OSO Program provides consistent, industry-leading safety communication, training, and regulatory compliance through monthly safety meetings.
Regardless of the FBO’s size, staffing level, or stage of SMS, the program offers a complete framework for an
effective safety promotion and communication program meeting several IS-BAH and SMS requirements.
Paragon Preferred Strategic Partner, Polaris Aero, will lead the OSO Program for 2024.
Polaris Aero provides intelligence software and services to simplify and streamline safety for line personnel, safety managers, and operation management. Their VOCUS cloud-based platform apps offer comprehensive Safety Management System (SMS) e-learning, advanced risk assessment, and next-generation safety management systems.
Paragon is also actively encouraging FBO members to complete the annual Gulfstream Ground Handling and
Service Training.
Gulfstream, in association with FlightSafety International, has meticulously developed online courses tailored for line service technicians, covering all models of large-cabin Gulfstream and mid-cabin Gulfstream aircraft.
The training focuses on enhancing awareness of aircraft safety protocols during servicing, thereby ensuring improved dispatch reliability and operational efficiency.
“Paragon’s commitment to safety is an investment in our members,” said Megan Barnes, President of Paragon
Aviation Group. “I want our members to have the support they need not only to remain in compliance, but
ensure their teams’ training requirements are met consistently. We are proud to work with safety leaders like
Polaris Aero, Gulfstream, and FlightSafety International.”
The Paragon Network is a distinguished membership of elite FBOs and international handling agents that
provide world-class service to general aviation travelers around the globe.
Paragon Aviation Group performs a comprehensive audit of the facilities and services offered to ensure the quality of the member base before any FBO joins The Paragon Network. Each member FBO must comply with a set of strategically developed core standards to remain in the group. Paragon Aviation Group facilitates The Paragon Network.
