As we celebrate the 15th annual Archie League Medal of Safety Awards
and the Region X Commitment to Safety Award, we are reminded that our
members' work ensuring that our National Airspace System is safe and
efficient is nothing short of heroic.
Named after the first air traffic controller, Archie League, this award
represents the core function of our membership and profession: using our
unique skills, mindset, training, and experience to positively influence the
events under our control.
Our program honors dedicated men and women who demonstrated the very
best examples of skill and professionalism this year. Each of our award winners
faced a unique situation in which their ability to think quickly and remain calm
under pressure was tested. These 11 events represent our members' relentless
commitment to safety.
To our award winners and all our nominees, congratulations on a job well done!
And to all of our NATCA members who nominated these deserving individuals,
thank you for your commitment to this program and to our profession. Enjoy
the banquet!
