Chantilly's AMT training gains Diamond FAA recognition
100 per cent of Chantilly Air's maintenance technicians, led by Jeff Windham, were required to exceed training requirements provided by the FAA to meet the award criteria.

For the sixth consecutive year, Chantilly Air's maintenance team has been awarded the FAA's Diamond Award of Excellence for Aviation Maintenance Technician (AMT) training. The recognition acknowledges the company's commitment to excellence and professionalism, as 100 per cent of Chantilly Air's maintenance technicians were required to exceed training requirements provided by the FAA to meet the award criteria.

The company's Part 145 repair station is led by Jeff Windham, who along with his team, works on airframes and engines of most major turbine aircraft manufacturers including Bombardier Learjet, Cessna, Gulfstream, Falcon and Hawker Beechcraft, as well as piston and turboprop aircraft such as Piper, Twin Commander and King Air. The company's Part 145 repair station performs other maintenance services and inspections at its Manassas headquarters, and is capable of supporting aircraft maintenance needs throughout the D.C. Metro Area.

“Being recognised by the FAA for our training and superior level of talent reinforces the principles at the core of who we are as a company,” states Tim Sullivan, chief operating officer of Chantilly Air. “We are dedicated to providing the highest level of service through each of our aviation business offerings in the Washington D.C., especially as we expand our business to be a turn-key fixed base operator this year.”
