The Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) and&nbsp;FltPlan have reached an agreement that enables charter and business aviation operators to participate in the foundation’s Aviation Safety Action Program (ASAP) via FltPlan’s safety system management (SMS) software.

 


“The goal is to provide end users with one-stop shopping by combining their overall safety management system with the ASAP program,” said ACSF president Bryan Burns. “It is through a cooperative effort and shared mission of safety that ACSF and&nbsp;FltPlan.com&nbsp;have been able to bring this program to the marketplace through a single data source.” Both entities believe this joint effort will help “to reduce operational risk and redundant workload associated with multiple databases.”

 


“We are happy to offer the marketplace the ability to participate in ASAP all within the&nbsp;FltPlan SMS software&nbsp;application,” said company president Ken Wilson. “This will represent a significant decrease in both time and cost for each participating charter and business aviation operator, without compromising their respective data and reports.”

 


ACSF was established to promote and enable the highest levels of safety in personal and business aviation and implemented its ASAP in cooperation with the FAA.&nbsp;FltPlan was founded in 1991 and has grown into one of the largest flight-planning companies in North America.
