Early last month several hundred people attended a business aviation conference in Nagoya, Japan, focused on the planned opening early next year of Komaki Airport to business aviation. (For more on business aviation access in Japan, see “Washington Report” on page 102.) Among the speakers at the Nagoya conference was NBAA president Shelley Longmuir. Here are excerpts from her presentation.

“Before I begin, I would like to congratulate Governor Kanda, his Aichi Prefecture staff and other members of the organizing committee for supporting the Business Aviation Conference. On behalf of the business aviation community, we look forward to working with you over the next year as you prepare to transform this international airport into a tremendous resource for business aviation and your community.
