Safety Program

​СÀ¶ÊÓƵ is committed to a culture of safety through the implementation, maintenance and promotion of an Aviation Safety Program involving every aspect of flight and ground operations. The well-being of our students, faculty and staff is of paramount importance. Our safe-mindset drives an emphasis on education, training, communication, inclusion, participation and forward thinking of all members of Jacksonville University's School of Aviation and those of our flight-training provider, L3Harris Airline Academy.

The Safety Culture of СÀ¶ÊÓƵ's School of Aviation​ is our foundation for accident prevention. During our direct or indirect involvement in the flight program we will strive to promote and maintain the highest level of safety while operating training aircraft in the air and on the ground. This safety commitment encompasses direct as well as observed operations conducted by any persons, regardless of experience. Safety needs to be at the forefront of every operation, such that a proactive, rather than reactive, approach is taken to eliminate all accidents, incidents, and unsafe occurrences.
