VP Aviation is proud to announce that Director of Sales Patrick Brousseau has earned the 2025 Executive Excellence Award. This Patrick Brousseau Award recognizes leadership, integrity, and measurable impact across aviation staffing and Mobile Response Teams.

Patrick is a former A&P Mechanic who understands aircraft maintenance from the hangar floor up. Because of that experience, he supports OEMs, MROs, and Business Aviation operators with practical workforce solutions. From AOG events to aircraft structures projects and WiFi install programs, he evaluates the situation and builds a solution that fits.
From A&P Mechanic to Aviation Staffing Leader
The Patrick Brousseau Award reflects more than performance. It highlights the trust he has built across the aviation industry. Many of the accounts supported by VP Aviation’s Mobile Response Teams exist because of his steady leadership and long-term relationships.
Mike Chally, President and Owner of VP Aviation, shared:
“Patrick has the ability to walk into a difficult situation and immediately understand what needs to happen. He evaluates the aircraft, the manpower challenge, and the timeline, then builds a solution that works. He never gets rattled. That steadiness makes a difference for our customers.”
Patrick’s leadership extends beyond sales. Many of the accounts VP Aviation’s Mobile Response Teams support today exist because of the relationships he has built within the aviation industry.
Benji Farr, Owner and Vice President of Technical Operations at VP Aviation, added:
“Patrick represents VP Aviation the right way. He respects the craft of aircraft maintenance and the professionals who make it happen. The success of our Mobile Response Teams is tied directly to the trust he has built.”
Leadership at Work and at Home
Outside of work, Patrick and his wife Erica recently welcomed their fifth baby boy. The same steadiness and commitment he brings to aviation staffing and aircraft maintenance support are reflected in his life at home.

The 2025 Executive Excellence Award highlights the impact Patrick continues to make across aviation staffing, aircraft structures programs, WiFi install support, and Mobile Response Team deployment nationwide.
VP Aviation congratulates Patrick Brousseau on this well-earned recognition.
