California-based private aviation services provider Clay Lacy Aviation has partnered with NBAA on a pilot program that will establish memberships in the organization for all of Clay Lacy’s managed aircraft customers.
“NBAA has a responsibility to the business aviation industry, and we are constantly collaborating with them,” said Clay Lacy chief commercial officer Joe Barber, who added that the organization plays a critical role in establishing a culture of learning and continuous improvement. “Our flight departments, professionals, and aircraft owners gain from advocacy, professional development, and an incredibly robust and authoritative resource hub.”
As a result of this agreement, Clay Lacy’s management clients will have access to NBAA’s events, networking opportunities, industry discounts, professional development programs, and information resources. The collaboration builds on the company’s involvement with the association, which includes membership in the management committee, safety committee, schedulers and dispatchers committee, and young professionals council.
“NBAA thanks Clay Lacy for partnering with us on this exciting initiative, and we are pleased to welcome its clients onboard for our shared mission of fostering business aviation and supporting all entrepreneurs and companies using aircraft for a business purpose,” said NBAA president and CEO Ed Bolen.
