Have you heard of the Pareto Principle? In a nutshell, The Pareto principle states that for many outcomes, roughly 80% of consequences come from 20% of causes (the “vital few”). Other names for this principle are the 80/20 rule, the law of the vital few or the principle of factor sparsity.

I will be expanding on this topic in my next editorial column in D.O.M. magazine. In the meantime, I would like your feedback on the topic. Here are a couple of things to think about:

1. Is there a need to improve our professionalism in the industry?

2. What can we do to accomplish this?

Jet Aviation St. Louis has received a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for installation of the Satcom Direct Router (SDR) in the Global Express, XRS, 5000, and 6000 models.
