(Albuquerque, NM) CSI Aviation, a New Mexico-based, international air charter services and logistics company, announced today its FAA Part 135 operating certificate has been further expanded to give the company the capability to provide flight services worldwide.

“This is an exciting time for CSI Aviation,” said President and COO William “Rock” Collins, “With the expansion of our international operating authority, CSI’s aircraft can fly to remote or hard-to-reach airports in other countries.  We can now provide our customer base with more flight offerings than ever before. We are eager to continue our tradition of excellent customer service while operating flights with our own aircraft and pilots.”

In order to further expand its Part 135 operating certificate, CSI participated in additional FAA training and implemented enhanced safety protocols for all aircraft. CSI pilots and dispatch personnel were evaluated for their capabilities in international flight operations and procedures. Company aircraft were upgraded to include high frequency (HF) radio installation, selective calling radio, traffic collision avoidance system II, worldwide avionics database, and Jeppesen International paper charting and database. To complete the process, CSI flew a qualifying mission from Albuquerque to Canada and Nuuk, Greenland.
