THE SENTIENT TEAM
IN BUSINESS, THERE ARE NUMEROUS FACTORS TO CONSIDER WHEN ENSURING ITS HEALTH AND SAFETY—FROM
MAKING THE RIGHT INVESTMENTS TO CHOOSING THE BEST MANAGERS TO MEETING ALL CODES AND REGULATIONS.
JUST AS SAFETY IS PART OF YOUR BUSINESS, IT’S ALSO INTEGRAL TO EVERY PERSON ON THE SENTIENT JET TEAM.
At Sentient Jet, we’re not only skillfully trained industry professionals, we’re also aviators—many of
us experienced pilots. This gives us unique insight into creating rigorous processes and programs that
consistently rise above industry standards and deliver safe flying experiences.
With over a century of combined experience in the aviation industry, the Sentient Jet team works with
an Independent Safety Advisory Board—established by Sentient, it is the first in the private aviation
industry. The board is composed of former officials from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and
the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) who guide and inform safety initiatives at Sentient.
Working from the proactive insights and recommendations of the board, Sentient’s Chief Safety Officer
(CSO), Charles Starkowsky, ensures client safety is a focal point throughout the company. Sentient was
also the first company in the Part 135 asset-light service industry to create the CSO position.
Sentient has spent nearly 20 years aggregating and organizing millions of specific,
customized data points in which to certify and approve operators, crews and aircraft.
The Sentient Safety Advisory Board members, along with Sentient account service teams, are
responsible for continuously monitoring hundreds of details to ensure the utmost flight safety. Sentient
has spent nearly 20 years aggregating and organizing millions of specific, customized data points in
which to certify and approve operators, crews and aircraft. This proprietary knowledge base consists
of data from multiple sources, including the National Weather Service, FAA, DOT and NTSB. Sentient
has an online, real-time database that consolidates this data and enables the team to perform multiple
automated safety checks with over 30 variables confirmed and validated before every trip.
