Safety in aviation does not begin in the cockpit. At DC Aviation Group, it starts long before that, namely in our Operations Control Center (OCC). The OCC is located at our headquarters in Stuttgart and operates group-wide for all flights from our locations. Around the clock, 365 days a year, our specially trained team ensures that every flight runs safely and smoothly, from planning to landing.
Every flight is meticulously prepared. This includes obtaining all overflight rights, coordinating with authorities and airports and obtaining approvals for every detail of the route. We deliberately do not rely on external personnel or external service providers. Our trust lies solely with our own OCC team, which works to the same high safety standards as our crew.
This means that every decision, every change, and every coordination is made by professionals who know the processes inside out. Our OCC is always ready to act and ensures that every flight can be carried out safely.
Why having our own OCC is crucial
In business aviation, flexibility and speed are crucial without compromising safety. Thanks to the complete independence of our OCC, we can:
Respond quickly to changes: Whether it's a change in weather, new airspace restrictions, or special permits at short notice, our team makes decisions immediately.
Minimize sources of error: Since we do not outsource, there are no delays or misunderstandings between external service providers.
Build trust: Every measure is carried out according to the same high safety standards that we apply in the cockpit.
Safety around the clockOur OCC's 24/7/365 system is more than just a logistical tool. It is a safety net that monitors all flights and supports every phase of the flight – from initial planning to safe landing. For our customers, this means maximum transparency, absolute reliability, and peace of mind: their flight is under control at all times – no matter when or where they are going.
The OCC is a central part of our philosophy: safety cannot be bought. It comes from experience, professionalism, and a corporate culture that lives and breathes responsibility. At DC Aviation Group, safety begins long before the aircraft takes off.
