The African Business Aviation Association (AfBAA) today named BestFly managing director Nuno Pereira to serve as vice chairman. Angola-based BestFly was among the founding members of AfBAA, and Pereira has been regularly involved since the association’s inception. Along with remaining active in AfBAA symposia and pavilions, he has hosted an AfBAA’s members-only rendezvous event at BestFly’s Luanda home base.&nbsp;

 


Pereira will support AfBAA chairman Tarek Ragheb in educating African governments about the benefits of business aviation to the economy. He also steers the association’s financial management as chair of the budgeting committee.

 


He takes the AfBAA leadership position as the association has experienced a 20&nbsp;percent growth spurt in membership over the past six months and as it prepares for its first African Business Aviation Conference, AfBAC, which will be held November 17 to 18 in Cape Town, South Africa.
