TULSA, OK — Intercontinental Jet Service Corporation (IJSC) President Dennis Braner and the entire IJSC team announce that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has presented IJSC the "Diamond Award" in recognition of its maintenance training program.

The Diamond Award is in recognition of IJSC's commitment to providing professional training for its technical staff. Each IJSC technician was recognized individually for successfully completing maintenance training throughout the 2008 business year.

The Diamond Award is recognition provided by the FAA designed to encourage maintenance employees and companies to actively participate in initial and recurrent training programs. The Diamond Award and individual honors were presented by Steve Keesey, FAA Safety Team Manager from the Southwest Region.

"IJSC is proud of our Professional Technical Team achieving such a high level of training and being recognized by the FAA for the second consecutive year after becoming a Mitsubishi Heavy Industries America Inc. (MHIA) owned company," says IJSC President Dennis Braner. "IJSC is committed to Aviation Safety and one of the major factors contributing to a safe work and flying environment is providing proper training to a professional team of technicians."

IJSC was purchased by MHIA in May 2006 and services more than 200 Mitsubishi MU-2 turboprop and light jet aircraft every year.

Intercontinental Jet Service Corporation (IJSC) is a wholly owned affiliate of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries America Inc. (MHIA). IJSC is a Mitsubishi MU-2 Service Center and a Honeywell TPE331 Major Service Center providing service and support for the MU-2 and other light jet aircraft.
