Paragon Aviation Group Announces Distinguished Member Awards

Paragon Aviation Group announced the annual recipients of their 2022 Network Member Awards including FBO Member of the Year, FBO Manager of the Year, Award of Excellence, and the Diamond Partner Award.

The 2022 FBO Member of the Year was awarded to ProJet Aviation based at Leesburg Executive Airport (KJYO) in Leesburg, Virginia.

Fellow FBO members and thousands of flight departments had the opportunity to cast their votes for the prestigious FBO Member of the Year.

Customer feedback surveys submitted throughout the year also played a role in determining this year’s winner.

Paragon’s President, Megan Barnes, along with her colleague surprised ProJet’s operations team at their FBO while they were hosting a networking event of almost 200 people.

They were presented with a personalized crystal trophy, a custom banner to display in their lobby, and a few other memorabilia to commemorate their hard work.

Paragon will also make a legacy scholarship donation to ProJet’s Aviation Education & Career Expo in 2023, one of the largest and most successful aviation events for young adults exploring careers in flight.

This scholarship will be presented in memory of Fury Gilad who was always an advocate for the Expo and responsible for raising the President and CEO that started this scholarship program.

The FBO Manager of the Year award focuses on an individual who is an active participant in the network, regularly shares best practices, is highly respected by his team, and contributes their expertise to fellow members.

Selected by Paragon’s corporate team, this year’s recipient was Scott Cutshall, SVP of Development and Sustainability at Clay Lacy Aviation.

The Award of Excellence recognizes an FBO team member who has gone above and beyond and is chosen from FBO members’ votes and results from customer feedback surveys.

Congratulations to Yulyanna Silva, Customer Service/FLA Assistant Manager at Business Jet Center based at Dallas Love Field (KDAL) in Dallas, TX, who was voted as this year’s winner.

JetSet Media, a specialized digital media company focusing on partnering with FBOs and the ultra-elite private aviation travel industry, won the Diamond Partner Award which honors a key vendor in Paragon’s exclusive Strategic Partner program.

“I am truly honored to present the awards to these outstanding individuals and companies who exemplify Paragon’s core values and make a positive impact in our industry,” said Megan Barnes, President of Paragon Aviation Group.
