Dépèche transmise le 17 février 2012 par Business Wire
PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mesa Airlines, Inc. is pleased to announce that the Company’s Maintenance team was awarded the Federal Aviation Administration’s prestigious Employer’s Gold Award for 2011.
“Mesa takes great pride in the dedication of our maintenance staff and I applaud our personnel for maximizing the opportunities to benefit from the training resources they have available to them. This dedication is a strong reflection on Mesa's commitment to a Safety First culture.”
The award is based on the percentage of the company’s eligible aviation maintenance technicians (“AMTs”) who complete a minimum amount of initial and recurrent training during the year. Of Mesa’s 221 eligible maintenance professionals, 195 − or 88 percent − received an individual AMT Award for 2011. The award provides maintenance technicians with incentives to improve safety by actively participating in initial and recurring training programs on their own initiative or in training programs subsidized by their employers.
Jonathan Ornstein, Chairman and CEO, said, “We are delighted to be recognized by the FAA for training excellence, and I appreciate the hard work by our maintenance people and training team for continuing to be industry leaders in training and safety programs.” Garry Appling, Senior Vice President of Maintenance & Engineering, added, “Mesa takes great pride in the dedication of our maintenance staff and I applaud our personnel for maximizing the opportunities to benefit from the training resources they have available to them. This dedication is a strong reflection on Mesa's commitment to a Safety First culture.”
