While most of us are busy with another of the night’s dreams, Hector Milian is already at it. Four a.m. is no stranger to Milian, Supervisor of Line and Ramp Services at Jet Aviation, a full-service FBO in Teterboro, New Jersey.

“I’m busy getting the shift ready,” he explained. “I’m looking at the plan for arrivals and departures. I’m checking to see if any maintenance is required, and getting the overall schedule ready for our 20 people. A big part of the early morning is simply putting the right people in the right positions for the movements of that day. A lot of coordination with everybody.”

Milian is known at Teterboro, one of the nation’s busiest general aviation airports, as a guy who gets it done, someone who sets a tone of teamwork, and a manager who can be called upon to do what it takes for clients and tenants.

For his service to clients and the industry, Milian has been honored with the NATA Safety 1st Certified Line Service Professional Award, given in recognition of “the positive impact they have on safety, service and business success.”
