Adds additional events for 2005 and
sets schedule
The planning committee for the Great Lakes International
Aviation Conference in Lansing, Michigan has just finalized the
schedule for the 2005 event. This year the Conference is
pleased to announce the addition of the Airport Managers and FBO
Expo, and additional sessions and exhibits tailored to professional
pilots, 135 operators and corporate flight departments.
"The GLIAC has become one of the most complete and comprehensive
events of its kind," according to Phil Tartalone, Michigan Bureau
of Aeronautics. "The addition of the Thursday and Friday
sessions is a natural progression for the conference. We have
had many requests, from throughout the Midwest, asking for sessions
and exhibits tailored to professional and business aviation
needs."
The Great Lakes International Aviation Conference offers three
packed days of exhibits, general sessions and topic-specific
instructional sessions.
- Over 120,000 square feet of exhibit space and presentation
rooms
- 75 airport and FBO sessions
- 80 IA renewal sessions on Friday and Saturday, offering eight
hours of training each day
- 125 pilot sessions, covering almost every topic from owner
maintenance to the latest and greatest techniques and products
- Two great dinners
- The best speaker lineup in the nation
The 2005 event will present the following featured speakers:
- John and Martha King
- Rod Machado
- Cathe' Fish
- Julie Clark
- Greg Feith
According to Todd Smith, coordinator
of the event, the exhibitor signup for next year's conference has
been brisk. "Our 2004 event was an outstanding success!
Our attendance numbers were very good, and overall, the 130
exhibitors found it to be a 'must exhibit' type of event. We
saw eight airplanes and one helicopter sold at last year's
show. Cessna, Cirrus, Mooney, Lancair and Robinson had a
great presence at the conference center. We began taking
applications for exhibit space and session presenters late last
week, and over 20 exhibitors registered during the first few
days."
The Great Lakes International Aviation Conference will be held
January 20 - 22, 2005 in Lansing, Michigan. Additional
