The aviation training legacy now under the care of Boeing Global Services began in 1968 when Sanderson Films—led by legendary instructor Paul Sanderson—was purchased by Times Mirror, and then in 1974 merged with Jeppesen to create the company Jeppesen Sanderson. Over the intervening decades, Jeppesen used its reach and technical expertise to deliver aviation education to flight schools and prospective pilots around the world. (Full disclosure: I worked in Jeppesen’s aviation training department from 1997-2000 and again from 2012-2014).
