The National Association of State Aviation Officials (NASAO) has named Washington the “Most Innovative State” this year for developing an online pilot-registration program that funds search-and-rescue projects and maintains and preserves GA airports.

The program began last January to increase the number of pilots who are registered with the Washington state Department of Transportation (WSDOT). With the new registration process, pilots can use the aviation division’s Web site to pay fees and update personal information. The quick and efficient online transaction replaces three separate mailings and internal processing costs.
