According to Will Robson of Aviation Pride UK, EBACE 2024 is providing another opportunity for his organization and the larger National Gay Pilots Association to advocate for the LGBTQ+ community. Both organizations are co-exhibiting this week at the European business aviation show.

“We're continuing to just promote who we are and share that with the industry," Robson said. "It's important because one of the things we do is...regular training and support for the industry. The other part of our tagline is making aviation more inclusive, accessible, and safer for all.

“What we're trying to do is share our name, let people know that we're here. Whether you are just an individual member, or whether you are an organization that's looking to get support, that's exactly what we're here to provide and help you with. We're just happy and want everyone to come say hello to us, just find out a little bit more information, have a chat.”

Robson said that Aviation Pride UK's mission is to be a wide-ranging resource for the community and a broad organization of advocacy and support.

“We're part of a worldwide LGBTQ+ aviation community. Our tagline is 'to build, support and unite' the LGBTQ+ aviation community, worldwide. And that's sort of what we do through many different avenues, whether it's through social events, networking, mentoring, scholarships, advocacy events, whistleblowing industry training, and a bunch of other things as well,” he said.
