Desert Jet Achieves IS-BAH & Safety 1st Designations

Desert Jet Center on April 26th became the only FBO in the desert southwest region of the U.S. to hold the prestigious IS-BAH registration as well as the NATA Safety 1st Certification, signaling a commitment of its leadership team to safety management & risk mitigation. The desert southwest region encompasses Southern California, Arizona, Nevada & New Mexico.


The International Standard for Business Aircraft Handling (IS-BAH) follows the structure of the International Standard for Business Aircraft Operations (IS-BAO) program & incorporates the NATA Safety 1st Ground Audit Program. IS-BAH is the global industry standard for business aircraft handling agents & fixed-base operators around the world developed to align with existing and future Safety Management System (SMS) requirements aimed at ground handling service providers. According to the National Air Transportation Association’s map of the safety standards status of all FBOs worldwide, few FBOs nationwide are IS-BAH registered & NATA Safety 1st qualified & only one FBO, Desert Jet Center, holds both designations in the greater Palm Springs area & desert southwest region.
