Maintenance Operation Expands On Increased Growth
Executive helicopter service
provider Associated Aircraft Group, Inc. (AAG) announced this week
the addition of three positions at its Dutchess County airport
flight operations and maintenance center. Adam Antia, Bob Steinberg
and Josh Kemlage have begun work in the company’s helicopter
maintenance facility, according to AAG Vice President of Operations
Kevin M. McGrath, who announced their employment.
Adam Antia is employed as Administrative Assistant to the
Director of Maintenance for the Part 145 Repair Station. A Marist
College graduate currently working toward his MBA, Antia provides
clerical and data input assistance to the Director. That includes
entering data into computer-based aircraft tracking systems,
verification of labor hours for each maintenance shop department
and tracking maintenance and current status for each aircraft.
Bob Steinberg, who obtained his Powerplant License shortly after
graduating from Aviation High School in Long Island City,
Queens, obtained significant additional training as an Aircraft
Structural Mechanic during his career in the Marine Corps. He holds
an Airframe License and spent 32 years working for a corporate
flight department prior to joining AAG as a mechanic.
Josh Kemlage is a Parts Associate charged with the managing,
ordering and receiving of aircraft parts. He reports to the
Spare/Parts Supervisor.
"As all facets of our business continue to grow, we look for
qualified, exemplary individuals we can add to our team," McGrath
said in making the announcement. "We are pleased that Bob, Josh and
Adam have brought their energy and expertise to AAG and its
clients."
AAG, a subsidiary of Sikorsky Aircraft, provides helicopter and
fixed wing charter flights, fractional ownership and helicopter
maintenance services from its New York and Philadelphia
installations. It is the only executive helicopter company to own
and operate its own Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Part 145
maintenance facility and is a Sikorsky Certified Repair Center. The
company’s principal flight operations and repair services are
housed in two hangars at the Dutchess County Airport, a short
flight from its Manhattan heliports.
