NBAA's New President Named
On Friday, May 30, the NBAA Board of Directors
announced the selection of veteran aviation executive Shelley A.
Longmuir (right) as the next president of the Association,
which currently represents more than 7,300 companies that operate
general aviation aircraft as an aid to their businesses or are
involved with business aviation. Longmuir has more than a decade of
experience in domestic and international aviation, most recently at
United Airlines, where she was senior vice president of
international/regulatory and governmental affairs for the world's
second-largest commercial carrier.
"We are excited that Shelley is bringing her experience,
leadership and vision to our Association," noted NBAA Chairman
George Saling. Don Baldwin, Vice Chairman of the Board and Chairman
of the Selection Committee, said, "Shelley was selected from among
nearly 100 highly qualified candidates. Her ability to work
effectively with people across the political and professional
spectrum, her proven track record of leading effective coalitions,
and her natural optimism, make her the right person at the right
time for NBAA."
Outgoing NBAA President Jack Olcott added, "NBAA is indeed
fortunate to have someone as talented and experienced in the
political realm of Washington and internationally as Shelley
Longmuir to be the Association's new president. She is
knowledgeable and effective, and she brings to the community skills
that are particularly critical in the current climate of change and
uncertainty."
