Advocacy AsBAA Discovery SARAH KALMETA Board of Governors AsBAA Discovery is excited to add the Hong Kong Aviation Academy to its list of educational partners. The program has seen significant growth and activity since ABACE17, and we are working to continue expanding our coverage around Asia. Jay Lopez, from INEAC in the Philippines, has been assisting to get Discovery up and running there. AsBAA Discovery will also be following the progress of Max Motchmann’ s son, Mio, who is undergoing ultralight flying lessons at the age of 8 and who is very passionate and dedicated to learning to become a pilot. Mio will help serve as a mascot and attend Discovery Days when visiting students of a similar age to inspire a passion for our industry. The months leading up to ABACE18 have been busy creating the agenda and confirming speakers for Day 3’ s student visit and NBAA’ s ‘Careers in Business Aviation’ sessions. We look forward to seeing you there and thank you to all who are helping dedicate their time and resources for the event. New Internships, Professional Development and Jobs Page Launched! We are excited to launch our new Internships, Education and Jobs page to AsBAA members. Here you will find details of upcoming courses such as: Airport Risk and Business Continuity Management; Manmade Threats; Airport Risk and Business Continuity Management Risk Register; Introduction to Aeronautical Information Management and many more.
