It Was Business Aviation Day At Oshkosh... But Its Business Aviation WEEK At Aero-TV (Part 3)!  

Last Friday, AeroShell Square was ringed with some of the best-known business aircraft flying, as EAA President Tom Poberezny, GAMA President Pete Bunce, FAA Administrator Randy Babbitt, and a parade of professionals brought the message of business aviation to the worlds largest sport aviation show.

That message is jobs, and that business aviation has been unfairly pilloried by Congress and the Obama Administration. The issue was pushed into the spotlight when automakers flew into Washington on corporate jets for Congressional hearings, and has been taking hits ever since. GAMA assembled a lineup of corporate leaders to bring a positive business aviations message to the Oshkosh crowd, and the industry media.

After some industry luminaries spoke supportively of an industry that was condemned by our erstwhile elected leaders, the crowd heard from business people who depend on BizAv to keep their companies going, keep their staff employed and put them where they need to be when and where business has to be done.

One of these business leaders was none than Racing Legend Jack Roush. Roush made it clear, in NO uncertain terms... without his bizplanes, he could NOT have built the enterprises he has, and be as competitive as he so obviously is -- and when we say "competitive" remember who we're talking about... Jack Roush has virtually redefined the term. Hey Washington... are you listening? .

Over this week, we'll hear from Tom Poberezny, Pete Bunce, Randy Babbitt, Jack Roush, Marion Blakey and others... all in defense of a much maligned industry that is and continues to be a critical part of this nation's transportation infrastructure.
