Business Aircraft Broker's Group Joins EBAA

The International Aircraft Dealers Association (IADA) has joined the European Business Aviation Association (EBAA) as an associate member. IADA executive director Wayne Starling explained that IADA’s involvement in EBAA affairs is an extension of its members' global reach in aircraft sales.

“Several of our members are already active in the EBAA and have recommended IADA organizational involvement as part of our focus on international business aviation activities,” Starling added. EBAA represents more than 700 business aviation companies in Europe that include corporate and commercial operators, manufacturers, airports, and FBOs with a fleet of more than 1,000 aircraft.

The move also results from the IADA’s 2018 transition from a largely U.S.-centric organization known as the National Aircraft Resale Association to an international one. That change included a new emphasis on developing professional standards and making aircraft deals more ethical and transparent.
