NBAA To Launch Sustainability Accreditation Program at BACE
NBAA will launch its Sustainable Flight Operations Accreditation program at its annual conference next month in Las Vegas.

With the business aviation industry focused increasingly on sustainability, NBAA will formally launch its Leadership in a Sustainable Flight Department accreditation program next month at NBAA-BACE in Las Vegas, according to Stewart D’Leon, the organization’s director of environmental and technical operations. Speaking on Wednesday at AIN’s Building a Sustainable Flight Department Conference in Tarrytown, New York, he noted that the audit-based program, which has been under development for three years, will provide a standardized way for NBAA members to demonstrate measures they are taking to reduce their environmental footprints.
