ANCHORAGE-based Medallion Foundation has awarded its highest safety award of its Medallion Shield to Alaska's Northern Air Cargo for maintaining higher standards than those set by Federal Aviation Administration.
Northern Air Cargo, a unit of Saltcuk Resource Corporation, has gained the award following its completion of the Medallion Five Star programme, with each star, a separate level of safety, then passing all safety and procedure audits.
"The award of Medallion Shield to our company is the culmination of years of hard work by our team, but ultimately it is validation of NAC's ongoing commitment to safety and world-class operational integrity," said Dave Karp, president and CEO of Northern Air Cargo.
"I am very proud of the men and women at NAC who work every day to make our company better," he added.
