Broom Named Exec Director for CitationJet Pilot Group

The Citation Jet Pilots Owner Pilot Association (CJP) appointed Andrew Broom executive director. Broom brings a background of association work, as well as industry communications and marketing experience, to his new role. Most recently he led marketing and communications for Honda Aircraft Co., where he helped in the introduction of the company’s first business jet, the HondaJet. Before that, he was v-p of communications and outreach at AOPA, holding responsibilities for advocacy programs, the AOPA annual summit and the effort to boost the pilot population. Broom also has served with Hawker Beechcraft, Eclipse Aviation, GAMA and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.

The CJP board approved the appointment last week during EAA AirVenture 2016 in Oshkosh, Wis. “Andrew is an accomplished aviation leader with executive experience at both aircraft manufacturers and associations, and we are thrilled that he will be helping us strengthen the world’s premier Citation owner-pilot organization,” said CJP chairman David Miller.
