Presidents Message...

 

Greetings again, fellow aviators, and Happy 2008!

2007 was another successful year for the Citrus Aviation Association. Once again, we had some really interesting guest speakers at our monthly meetings. We actively supported the Crystal River Airport Master Plan update, which was ultimately approved by the County Commission. And, of course, we did our fair share of socializing! From informal get-togethers to our annual Fall Picnic and the Holiday Party, we had lots of fun. There is an excellent crew on board this year to assist with planning events as well as take care of regular business, so 2008 should be even better than 2007.

With 3 County Commission seats up for election this year, we must not be lazy about letting the candidates know how important both our county's Community Airports are. The results of this year's election could, essentially, make or break what happens at the airports over the next 4 years or so.



While we are not primarily a political organization, the area's political climate requires that we be vigilant in protecting our airports and ensuring that the Master Plan is fulfilled as much as possible.

Already on tap for upcoming meetings are: an FAA Safety Counselor presentation on Safety at Non-Towered Airports, a Civil Air Patrol presentation and a slide show of the 2007 Crystal River Airport Economic Impact Study. Several other great speakers are lined up to tell us of their flying experiences, ranging from military history to commercial flight. I know we have a couple of fly-outs planned, some land-based meals and some other really fun events to look forward to. Please check the calendar regularly to see what's new, and we hope to see you around!

Blue Skies,
