AUGUST 2022 – Million Air is excited to announce a new director of safety for its network of 34 FBOs, Jason Sahl. Sahl is responsible for leading Million Air’s unrivaled level of safety across the network of FBOs. As the director of safety, Sahl is responsible for overseeing the Million Air Preferred Practices Program (MAP3), performing Safety Assist Visit and Evaluation (SAVE) audits at all locations, investigation and review of network mishaps, and maintaining relationships with all levels across the Million Air organization. In addition, Sahl provides communication to the network through content on Million Air’s Learning Management System, monthly newsletters, Safety RED TAGs, among others.
Previously, Sahl owned and operated MAX Q LLC, an aviation services company that specialized in providing document development, operational support, and in-depth, on-site Fuel Quality Control training to FBOs. In late 2021, he wrote and self-published a guidebook titled “Beyond the Standard: Practical Application Fuel QC for Fixed-Base Operations.”
Sahl has worked in FBO Operations since 2003, ascending the Line Service ranks at several airports and FBOs in the Kansas City and South Florida metro areas. He has previously held positions such as quality, safety, and training supervisor, line service manager, training officer, and operations manager. His 19 years of industry experience has exposed him to personnel management, equipment acquisition, high-volume special events, training, seasonal operations, and many of the safety duties involved in this current role of Director of Safety.
Sahl has attended many continuing education courses in the industry including NATA’s Safety 1st Trainer seminar, Advanced Line Service Workshop, ASTM Aviation Fuels Specifications and Test Methods workshop, and IBAC’s IS-BAH Fundamentals and Auditing workshops. He is a passionate professional with an accomplished background in operational efficiency, excellence, and safety promotion.
