Meridian’s proud history dates back over 75 years. Along the way, we’ve learned that exceptional service is what our customers value most. That philosophy, along with our dedication to putting safety first, is the cornerstone of our culture at Meridian. We appreciate your interest in Meridian and look forward to serving you soon!

The company’s roots at Teterboro date back to 1946 when Ken Forester, Sr. and Bob Hewitt formed Mallard Air Service. Twelve years later, Forester started a new business venture, General Aviation Company, offering aircraft sales, maintenance and other aviation services.
Meridian is still privately-owned today, and we take pride in being the only family-owned aviation company still at Teterboro. For a look at our long and storied history, please see the timeline below.
