Financial assistance may be available toward conference registration. This does not include room accommodations or transportation. Please submit registration ASAP so we can contact you to discuss assistance.The youth component
Although we are a professionals’ conference and trade show, we have endeavored to include the youth generation into the mix with limited student access to sessions and exhibits.Additionally, we educate our business attendees on the importance of youth and their parents as customers and remind them that even a twelve year old loves flying planes and represents the future of aviation and aerospace. Ask any of our flight school members who have returned home after a FSANA conference and started an AeroCamp program and they will testify to the rewards of opening the door to the youth in their community.
