American Airlines recognized five of its top aviation maintenance technicians (AMTs) for their work in their field as recipients of this year’s Ken MacTiernan Excellence in Aviation Maintenance Award. Since 2019, the award has been honoring AMTs at American who exhibit the qualities of professional AMTs, strive to uphold the highest standards in aircraft maintenance and support and promote the profession.

Celebrating Excellence

“Each year we gather to celebrate American’s best and brightest AMTs,” said Kevin Brickner, American’s senior vice president of Technical Operations. “Not only are we honoring these mechanics for the work they do in the hangar to keep our customers and team members safe, but the work they do in their communities and with the future generation of AMTs. The honorees are an inspiration to their fellow team members and to the entire aviation maintenance industry.”
