NBAA President Gives Major D.C. Address

National Business Aviation Association president and CEO Ed Bolen outlined five top priorities to ensure business aviation's continued success during his February 28 address to a major aviation policy forum in Washington, D.C. Speaking at a meeting of the Aero Club of Washington, Bolen said aviation would be key to defining America's leadership in an increasingly global economy and stressed five areas of focus: reauthorization of the FAA; preserving security as a national priority; continuing progress on reducing aircraft emissions; supporting the General Fund for aviation; and government-industry collaboration on continued transformation to a "NextGen" aviation system.
