Meet the Team
Terry Beckham – Co-Owner & Operator
Terry Beckham is the founder of Aviation Fuel Specialists — a business dedicated to servicing aviation fueling equipment including fuel farms, fuel dispensers and fuel trucks. With over 20 years of hands-on experience in the aviation industry, including FBO management, fueling, towing, de-icing, and safety, Terry has seen firsthand how critical a well-maintained fueling system is to safe and efficient flight operations.
AFS was started to bring a more personal, responsive, and reliable touch to fuel equipment service — something that is missing in an industry dominated by large, impersonal companies. Backed by a Bachelor of Science degree in Professional Aeronautics from Embry Riddle, and a deep understanding of the field, Terry is committed to delivering high-quality, safety-driven service with the professionalism aviation demands.
“At Aviation Fuel Specialists, we’re not just another contractor — we’re a partner who understands the unique challenges of ground operations and treats every job with the care it deserves.”
Amber Beckham – Co-Owner & CFO
Amber is proud to serve as co-owner and CFO of Aviation Fuel Specialists, where she also manages the company’s social media presence. She and Terry first met while working together in the aviation field, and she’s carried that early experience and knowledge with her into the family business today.
With a background in accounting support and 16 years of managing her household, Amber brings strong organizational and financial skills to the team.
Amber and Terry have been married for 19 years and are raising their four children together. She holds an associate degree in education, loves reading, and enjoys learning the ins and outs of accounting, while supporting Terry in fulfilling his vision for the company.
