NATA Announces 2018 Aviation Maintenance Technician Employer Recognition Awards

Three Dozen Companies Will Be Honored

NATA has announced the recipients of the 2018 Aviation Maintenance Technician (AMT) Employer Recognition Awards. These awards are presented annually to companies that provide qualified new and recurrent AMT training to their employees. Award winners receive either a one, three or five-star award depending on the percentage of employed AMTs meeting the training requirements.

This year NATA is granting awards to 36 companies, including thirteen awardees that will receive recognition for five consecutive years as AMT Employer Recognition Award recipients.

“NATA is proud to once again recognize businesses that are committed to the high quality training of AMTs. Their dedication is critical to addressing our industry’s current workforce challenges and these awards demonstrate the investment needed to continue attracting and retaining maintenance staff,” stated NATA president Marty Hiller.

On June 13th, the recipients will be recognized at the NATA Industry Excellence Awards Luncheon Presentation held in conjunction with the 2018 Annual Meeting and Aviation Business Conference. The full list of 2018 AMT Employer Recognition Award winners is available here.

During the luncheon, awards will also be presented to long-time aviation executives Larry Flynn (Ong Memorial Award) and Randy Berg, A.A.E., (Distinguished Service Award) — along with Dr. Gerald Dillingham, former U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) Director of Civil Aviation Issues (Distinguished Public Service Award); George Terry, VP Director of Maintenance Operations at Corporate Eagle (ATP/NATA General Aviation Service Technician Award); Juan Rivera, Airport Director at Manassas Regional Airport (Airport Executive Partnership Award); Janine Schwahn, Chief Instructor at Summit Aviation (Excellence in Pilot Training Award); and Henry Graves, Line Technician at APP Jet Center – Manassas (Safety 1st Certified Line Service Professional Award).
