Principal Aviation Joins the Air Charter Safety Foundation

The Air Charter Safety Foundation (acsf.aero), a non-profit aviation safety organization headquartered in Washington, D.C., welcomes its newest member company, the Florida-based air charter broker, Principal Aviation.

Principal Aviation’s Partner, Lee Simon, commented: “We joined ACSF, because we know the importance of safety. As an air charter broker, we feel it is essential to be open and transparent in everything we do, with safety being the most critical part of our mission and our fiduciary role to our clients. We are excited to partner with an organization that has the same passion and drive for safety as the team at Principal Aviation does.”

The ACSF’s President, Bryan Burns, said that he is pleased to welcome yet another air charter broker into the ACSF’s rapidly increasing membership, which currently totals more than 290 participating companies. “We’re very gratified that Principal Aviation is joining our ranks,” Burns noted. “As we continue to increase the number of ACSF members we serve, we’re also working diligently to increase and improve the range of safety-related services we provide to them. It’s central to our foundation’s charter.”
