General Meetings

The PNBAA is dedicated to supporting and furthering the business of aviation and recognizes our members’ time is valuable. Providing timely, informative and constructive communications and events is critical to ensuring we continually bring member benefits. The following highlights our achievements to this end over the past few years:

Partnered Events / Communications

PNBAA works with other groups to keep on top of news and issues. Co-hosts have included the NBAA, Aviation International News (AIN Alerts), Alliance for Aviation Across America, and Pacific Rim Schedulers and Dispatchers Association. Topics have included FAA Reauthorization; Emergency Revocation of Air Carrier Certificates; Transportation Security Administration’s Large Aircraft Security Program (LASP); Safety Management Systems (SMS) resources; and dissemination of industry-specific news items.

Membership “Thank You” Events

The Annual BBQ is a free and family-oriented example of PNBAA’s appreciation. Held during Seafair week at Boeing Field and when the Blue Angels’ and other air-show performers’ practice, PNBAA provides hamburgers, hotdogs, beverages and other picnic fixings for more than 200 attendees.

Charity Golf Outing

Every September PNBAA hosts its charity golf event. Helping to keep the industry healthy, this outing targets aviation-focused benefactors including Aviation High School and the Civil Air Patrol. Members and sponsors have the opportunity to have fun and participate in supporting a worthy cause. In 2009, the event raised $3,000 for the Aviation High School (http://www.aviationhs.org/).

Safety Day

Giving membership an opportunity to learn and share best practices is facilitated through this annual, day-long event that showcases international recognized, aerospace safety experts talking about the industry’s current and future safety issues and opportunities. This event has sold-out annually.
