BROOMFIELD, CO – April 23, 2013 – Aircell, a leading provider of in-flight connectivity equipment and services to the business aviation market, has named five organizations to receive the company’s highest dealer honor for 2012 – called the Aircell 51,000 Five .
The Aircell 51,000 Five award recognizes the five highest-performing organizations in the company’s global dealer & distributor network, as chosen by the Aircell Executive Team.
Recipients of the Aircell 51,000 Five award for 2012 are as follows (in alphabetical order):
- Constant Aviation – Cleveland, OH
- Duncan Aviation – Lincoln, NE, and Battle Creek, MI
- Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. – Savannah, GA
- Jet Aviation – St. Louis, MO
- StandardAero – Springfield, IL
Award selection is based on each dealer’s demonstrated commitment to helping customers get the most out of in-flight connectivity, technical expertise, sales performance and other factors.
Representing a pinnacle of achievement for an Aircell Dealer, the award’s name was inspired by the highest altitude reached by aircraft in the business aviation industry – 51,000 feet. Trophies were presented to each organization in a ceremony held last month during the Aircraft Electronics Association’s Annual Convention & Trade Show in Las Vegas, NV.
