PNBAA Recognized at NBAA-BACE


PNBAA Board members past and present were honored to be recognized by NBAA at BACE this month. PNBAA was awarded the "Outstanding Excellence by a Local and Regional Group"among our national peers for setting the standard of best practices while contributing to the success of business aviation.

Our dedicated NBAA Northwest representative Kristi Ivey reflected upon the past 10 years of PNBAA accomplishments in legislation advocacy, community outreach, advancement of safety and career/educational achievements. On behalf of the Board, congratulations to the entire PNBAA community on your nationally recognized achievements!


NBAA Safety Committee Survey Request

The NBAA Safety Committee is now conducting its annual survey to identify safety trends and threats. All business aviation stakeholders are encouraged to participate such as maintainers, line staff, pilots, flight attendants, schedulers & dispatchers, frequent users and trade organizations. Please forward the survey to your peers.

The survey can be conveniently conducted on your phone within 10 minutes. NBAA will analyze and publish their findings. Thank you on behalf of our local NBAA Safety Committee officer Frank Raymond.

Golf Tournament Scorecard

Rain, what rain? Last month the PNBAA community scoffed at a rain forecast to fill the Golf Club at Newcastle course. We had too much fun together, strengthened professional relationships from the driving range through the 19th hole and supported PNBAA scholarship endeavors. 

Congratulations golfers!
