GSE International Expo has a rich history of showcasing the best in aviation ground support and the 2004 show is no exception. Visitors to the show can expect to see nearly 200 companies from around the world. Leading manufacturers from the United States, as well as key international pavilions from the UK and the Netherlands, will highlight the latest aviation technology.
Your registration also gives you access to the best in general aviation services and products. AS3, the Aviation Services and Suppliers Supershow, hosts more than 200 companies with the latest in aftermarket services. You're sure to find what you need, whether you're looking for fuel solutions, avionics, maintenance options or financial and insurance services - the leading suppliers are all at AS3.
On the educational front, don't miss the free GSE panel discussions each morning. Industry leaders will analyze and forecast the future of aviation. From the business of air transport to the future of the airport and its impact on passengers and ground support to the future of the environment, these free seminars are designed to challenge your thinking and help you plan for the future of YOUR business.
Aviation Industry Week is also host to two influential industry association gatherings. The annual meeting of the National Air Transportation Association (NATA) will focus on the dramatic changes affecting general aviation in business, the economy, government policies and security. You may also register to attend the Professional Aviation Maintenance Association (PAMA) Annual Symposium featuring over 75 hours of technical training. The PAMA Aviation Maintenance Olympics, held on the show floor, is always a crowd pleaser and the PAMA Chili Cook-off, held Wednesday evening after the show, is definitely worth a "taste."
This is the most dynamic week of the year for the aviation industry. Don't miss it.
