MONDAY, October 4, 1999

HAAC's speaker for Monday, October 4, 1999, was Mr. Ed Bolen, President of the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA). Mr. Bolen joined GAMA in 1995 as Senior Vice President and General Counsel, and was elected President of GAMA in November 1996. Mr. Bolen is also a recreational pilot and enjoys flying various types of general aviation aircraft.

GAMA is a national trade association, headquartered in Washington D.C., representing over 52 manufacturers of fixed-wing aircraft, engines, avionics, and components. In addition to building nearly all of the general aviation aircraft flying in the United States today, GAMA member companies also operate aircraft fleets, airport fixed-based operations, pilot schools, and training facilities across the nation. General Aviation aircraft range from two-seat training aircraft to intercontinental business jets and regional airliners.

Mr. Bolen treated the HAAC membership to a great discussion about the status of the general aviation industry.
