NAAA Wishes You and Yours a Happy 4th of July!
Register for the 47th Annual Convention & Exposition Starting Monday, July 8; Schedule Error in Magazine

Registration Opens in 5 Days!

Mark your calendar for Dec. 9–12 and join us in Reno, Nev., for the 47th Annual NAAA Convention & Exposition. This year's convention is packed with a schedule full of networking and social events, educational sessions, and the world’s largest agricultural aviation trade show with a variety of aircraft. Attendee registration will open online on Monday, July 8.

Convention Schedule Correction in July/August Agricultural Aviation Magazine

Please note a mistake on the NAAA Convention Schedule in the July/August issue of the Agricultural Aviation. The CD Aviation Seminar and Pratt & Whitney Session will take place on Sunday, Dec. 8, not Thursday, Dec. 12. The actual seminar times are as follows:

 

Sunday, December 8
8 a.m.–4:30 p.m.   CD Aviation Seminar
9 a.m.–4 p.m.         Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6 Seminar


A full schedule can be viewed here.
