Flight Safety
ARG/US Evaluation
To ensure the safety of each and every flight, Concord Private Jet subscribes to the services of the Aviation Research Group/U.S. ARG/US is a leading independent provider of data, research and analysis services to the business aviation marketplace. ARG/US services include a system of safety rankings that provides prospective clients with a clear evaluation of every aircraft and its crew.
The ARG/US carrier rating system categorizes air charter carriers and their private jets into one of four levels: DNQ, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. To qualify for a Gold rating, the minimum standard accepted by Concord Private Jet, carriers must provide detailed pilot and aircraft records to ARG/US for review. The Platinum rating involves an onsite audit by inspectors trained to Department of Defense Standards.

Pre-Flight ARG/US TripCHEQ.
For every private jet flight, ARG/US provides a unique service called the TripCHEQ Report (Charter Evaluation and Qualification). The most comprehensive and detailed safety analysis program in the industry, TripCHEQ examines each reserved plane, pilot, and carrier before every flight. It tracks pilot certificates, type ratings, accidents, incidents, violations, operator certificates, operational control of the aircraft and aircraft insurance levels. All of these factors are checked specifically within each client’s trip parameters.
By adhering to the TripCHEQ program, Concord Private Jet ensures that each of its flights undergoes multiple, real-time safety evaluations using the TripCHEQ program. Concord will never assign an aircraft or crew that does not meet 100% of the safety requirements it has developed in tandem with ARG/US and TripCHEQ.
Included in each pre-flight analysis is an automatic evaluation of the following:
 |
FAA and NTSB records |
|
Pilot qualification records including flight time and experience records |
|
Certifications, training documents and insurance information |

Should an aircraft not meet our safety requirements, we will immediately assign another jet to complete the trip.
Private jet charter is one of the safest methods of travel available. Air charter carriers operate their private jets with regular oversight from the FAA on operations, maintenance and training. Most carriers exceed the training requirements dictated by the FAA.
