Business aviation meet at Northolt

RAF NORTHOLT played host last week to the second annual business aviation get-together (which has the confusing title of BA Meet Up).  Attendees from Europe, USA and the Middle East, spent two and half days attending education sessions and chatting with delegates and exhibitors which included Air BP, Bon Soiree Catering, First Class Cars and charter operator Ocean Sky.  Interactive sessions featured topics as varied as food safety awareness, airport investment, aircraft registry matters, social media and media understanding, plus technical presentations on flight planning and bird scaring.  Speakers included Andrew Hoy, Managing Director of ExecuJet on the future of business aviation; Graham Stephenson, aviation consultant, on FBO staffing and training and a controversial session on cabin safety – why have a third crew member by Susan Friedenburg from Corporate Flight Attendant Training.  AERBT follows with a full report next week by Alison Chambers. www.ba-meet.com
