What a year it's been so far, and still more to come.
I've just completed Safety Management Systems(SMS) training for the mangament and staff of my client Tourism Milford Limited in Queenstown. We have set up a new helicopter company in Queenstown and have our CAA initial audit for our Air Operators Certificate (AOC).
It has been the culmination of months of work and preparation. Scotty Theyers and I have worked tirelessly to have the new arm of the company ready for business.
I have had to write the company's exposition from scratch, and apart from a few changes, the documents have been recieved well by the CAA.
SMS has been a huge effort, understanding the expectations of the regulator has been challenging but due to the absolute willingness of the TML helicopter team to not only accept SMS, but embrace it, has been a key factor in its inception and implementation.
Looking forward to next weeks audit with confidence and excitement.
