With a workforce of greater than 800 employees – more than half of them skilled maintenance technicians – Airborne is one of the leading employers in the Wilmington area. They enhance their recruiting efforts with educational partnerships, such as the Structures Apprenticeship Program that allows someone with a mechanical aptitude to gain classroom training, mentoring and on-the-job experience toward earning an FAA Airframe & Powerplant license. Such programs have helped Airborne maintain a workforce skilled in the company's growing product lines of heavy maintenance, line maintenance, component repair/overhaul, manufacturing, engineering, material sales and cargo conversions.
During the OAA Annual Conference, Airborne's President Brady Templeton and General Manager Jim Savastano were joined by Dan Evers, Executive Director of the Clinton County Port Authority, to accept the award.
"This was both an honor and a valued recognition for all of the work and investment made by many across the State of Ohio, allowing us an opportunity to invest in people through these training programs," Templeton said.
