GOODRICH WINS AVIATION DIAMOND AWARD

Baldwin Register

Monday, July 28, 2003

Submitted by the Goodrich Corporation

FOLEY – The Goodrich Corporation, Alabama Service Center in Foley, has received the Diamond Award from the Federal Aviation Administration for a third consecutive year.

The center was awarded the FAA’s Diamond Award for its successful participation in the Aviation Maintenance Technician Awards Program.

The awards were presented at a celebration by the center’s general manager, Stuart Kay, and John Hardy, FAA quality assurance manager at the Flight Standards District Office in Birmingham.

Kay accepted the Diamond Award on behalf of the Alabama Service Center.  The Center provides service to many carriers that need repair and overhaul of various structures.

The FAA program teaches aviation employees about federal rules and regulations designed to ensure safe aircraft maintenance and repair.  To achieve the Diamond Award, a company must have 25 percent of its workforce complete some level of training.

Of the 126 eligible employees, 101, or 80 percent, received a bronze, silver, gold, ruby or diamond award.
