Spirits high at WAI’s annual networking event
Although the dismal economy cast a pall over this year’s Women in Aviation conference–the association’s 20th–there were plenty of networking opportunities
Although the dismal economy cast a pall over this year’s Women in Aviation conference–the association’s 20th–there were plenty of networking opportunities available to attendees. As it has in the past, the conference brought its members–who hail from all sectors of aviation (commercial, corporate, private and military)–together to share their passion for the industry they work and play in.
This year’s event, held at the Hyatt Regency downtown in Atlanta from February 26 to 28, drew 124 exhibitors compared with the 148 that participated last year. Attendance at this year’s conference was down 10 percent from the record high of 3,320 of last year to nearly 3,000 this year.
