PNBAA Friends & Family BBQ

Thursday, August 3, 2017
11:30 am - 1:00 pm
Clay Lacy Aviation, Seattle

It really feels like the best of summer when the Blue Angels are streaking overhead and we gather to enjoy a barbecue lunch with friends and family at Boeing Field. This year the organizing volunteers have turned the grill and shopping over to catering professionals, so everyone can enjoy a gourmet burger lunch and ice cream treat.

Please register online at the event site for this FREE lunch in advance to support our catering plan. Also extend a big thank you to sponsors Honeywell, Jetstream Aviationand host facility Clay Lacy Aviation for providing this fun experience.


Charity Golf Tournament Update

Wednesday, September 20, 2017
The Golf Club at Newcastle

Wow! Golfer registration sold out within days of the June 5th opening. We encourage anyone else interested in golfing to register now (joining the wait list). Inevitably there will be some openings due to the last minute conflicts of registered golfers.

Good news - there are still sponsorship opportunities for any budget to consider. Plus they include golfers! VIP $5,000, Player Gift Certificate $3,000 and Raffle Prize Gifts $1,000.

Luncheon tickets and volunteer opportunities are also fun options to participate.

Voice Your Opinion!

Have you noticed the flurry of news since late June on air traffic control (ATC) privatization? H.R.2997 – legislation containing provisions for privatizing ATC – a long-standing priority for the nation’s big airlines has been introduced. It puts general aviation's airspace and airport access at risk.

Now it is time to individually voice opposition of ATC privatization and voice support of modernization. Your D.C. legislators look closely at the diversity of individual responses, not just the familiar industry advocates. NBAA has established a very quick way for you to share an informed perspective by contacting Congress with the link below. Every email counts, thank you.
