Company's Propeller Field Services Receives FAA Award
Cessna Aircraft Company's Propeller
Aircraft Field Services has received the Certificate of Excellence,
Phase V, Diamond Award for having 100 percent employee
participation in the Aviation Maintenance Technicians (AMT) awards
program. In recognition of this outstanding achievement, Cessna's
Propeller Aircraft Field Services received a plaque by Felix
Lococo, the Wichita Flight Standards District Officer (FSDO)
Manager, on behalf of FAA Administrator Marion Blakely.
Cessna's Director of Product Support Steve Charles commented,
"This award substantiates our customer commitment to provide the
best product support in the industry. With over 150,000 Cessna
propeller aircraft to take care of, the Propeller Field Service
team is essential in maintaining the fleet and providing quality
customer service. We are very proud of everyone on the Propeller
Field Service team for their hard work and dedication."
The Diamond Award of Excellence is
the highest maintenance award given by the FAA to any aviation
company that attains involvement of at least 25 percent of their
total work force in the AMT program during the calendar year.
Cessna greatly exceeded the FAA's 25 percent involvement award
requirement, and achieved 100 percent employee participation.
The Aviation Maintenance Technician Awards program is designed
to encourage AMTs and their employers to participate in the awards
program each year. Continuous participation in the FAA Safety
Program for airworthiness training will reinforce and foster the
high level of professionalism in the aviation industry.
