Security concerns; new flight, duty and rest time recommendations; and growing attention from the private-equity financial camp topped the items of interest at
this year’s NATA Convention. Held in conjunction with Aviation Industry Week, NATA’s annual meeting also addressed the changing role of aircraft charter brokers, airport authorities assuming FBO roles and NATA’s own Safety First Management System program.

Breakout seminars and educational programs stretched the convention beyond its three-day format, which officially spanned March 8 to 10. All in all, this year’s Las Vegas meeting was punctuated by some candid, thought-provoking views from a variety of perspectives.
