Will Collaborate On State And Federal Aviation Issues

The National Air Transportation Association (NATA) has partnered with the Ohio Regional Business Aviation Association (ORBAA) to provide each organization's members more leverage in tackling state and federal issues respectively. ORBAA's mission is to promote business aviation in the state of Ohio.

"NATA looks forward to a collaborative effort with ORBAA and its members as we address issues facing the general aviation community, whether it is a local tax increase in the state of Ohio or gathering grassroots support from ORBAA members on federal legislation," NATA President James K. Coyne stated.

The global economic recession crippled the general aviation industry last year, but some hopeful signs indicate that the worst could be over. Being on the forefront of potential issues affecting our industry is a key component of effecting change, and we must remain vigilant on opposing tax increases on the state level as well as user fees on general aviation on the federal level. NATA is looking forward to a strong working relationship with ORBAA.
