Aero-Linx!

Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough, if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this is done on the Internet.

The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into cyber-aero-space for awhile.

Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always welcome, as well.

FAAMA is the recognized advocate for aviation leaders within the Federal Aviation Administration.  We advocate for aviation’s leaders to Congress through our well-respected government relations firm, the Normandy Group.  The Normandy Group is comprised of a former Member of Congress and several former senior Congressional staff members with experience in both the House and Senate.  Normandy’s proficiency on FAAMA issues coupled with their knowledge of the decision makers and their view on issues enables Normandy to tailor and communicate FAAMA’s message to resonate on Washington, D.C.  The Normandy Group serves as an extension of the internal FAAMA team and understands the views of policymakers. FAAMA, through the Normandy Group, is able to build long term relationships with Members of Congress.
