Former US Air Force officer, B-52 Instructor Pilot, and airline pilot, David “Dave” Pflieger previously served as a corporate officer and attorney at Delta Air Lines and Virgin America. More recently, he was CEO of Fiji Airways, Silver Airways, and Hawaii Island Air. David Pflieger currently holds those positions with air transportation and logistics services provider Ravn Air Group based in Anchorage, Alaska, the largest regional airline in our 49th State. On August 13, 2018, Ravn Air Group announced that it had successfully completed the arduous International Air Transport Association (IATA) operational safety and audit and had officially joined the International Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) registry. With that, Ravn Alaska became the 35th airline in the country to earn the certification and achieve that highly coveted standard. IOSA registration is an international standard for airline safety management. The IOSA certification is recognized globally as an endorsement of a carrier’s processes, management systems, and controls. To receive certification, carriers and their systems are evaluated against about 900 standards and best practices in eight organizational disciplines. The certification process standardizes operational safety audits, creating a benchmark upon which carriers can assess their safety practices. Dave Pflieger and his Ravn Air executives credited their highly successful IOSA registration to the hard work and commitment of the airline’s frontline team. They stated that the registration was a testament to its prioritization of passenger safety.
