COVER STORY

With a passion for education, Gammon has worked
for decades to ensure aviation fueling safety.

By Josh Smith

successful flight begins with the work
performed on the ground, and supplying
clean, dry fuel is a fundamental element
of that safety.
According to Jim Gammon, president at Gammon Technical Products (GTP),
there are three things of no use to a pilot - the runway behind; the altitude above;
and the fuel still in the refueler truck. And so, he has delivered steadfast work
centered on making the industry as safe as it can be.
" Jim is a born leader - the type of guy that everyone respects, that everyone
listens to, " says Jeff Langtip of C&L Sales and Services Pty Ltd. " Jim is involved in
everything related to the industry and in my view, the most genuine and respected
in this industry. I have never ever heard an unfriendly or unkind word in a
conversation about Jim. "
For his dedication to aircraft fueling safety, Gammon has been recognized with
Ground Support Worldwide's Lifetime Achievement award.
" Hundreds of people before me set a high standard and a noble goal, make air
travel safe. Many of them deserved an award more than I do, " Gammon says. " I
hope to inspire younger people to dedicate themselves to the same goal. "
