Getting Ready For AviationPros LIVE

Dec. 11, 2012
We'll also be marking our 20th anniversary at the show, highlighting GSE milestones.

AviationPros LIVE, our annual conference and trade show that brings together the readers and advertisers of Ground Support Worldwide, and our sister publications Airport Business and AMT, will be held March 13-14 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

The name of the show might be new, but as always attendees will have the chance to meet manufacturers and learn about the latest products and services on the exhibit floor, network during show events and take advantage of education seminars geared to ground support equipment.

This year, Ground Support Worldwide will host two seminars each on March 13:

  • Funding Options For Electric GSE, 11 a.m.-12 noon

Neal Wolfe, a senior consultant with LeighFisher, to discuss not just VALE grants, but other state and local alternatives.

  • The State Of The Electric GSE Market, 2-3 p.m.

A panel discussion including GSE professionals from airlines and battery makers to talk about the results of a survey of Ground Support Worldwide readers on their buying trends for electric equipment.

Another draw for our readers is sure to be an expanded outdoor exhibit area, which will offer booths and plenty of room to demonstrate GSE.

Also, we’ll be announcing the winners of our Ground Support Leaders at the Opening Night Reception, 6 p.m., March 13.

Finally, the magazine turns 20 next February and we will mark the occasion at the show with a display of important milestones in the development of ground support equipment, including tractors, pushbacks, GPUs and deicers. We’re looking for any old images of equipment and stories to share. Send any information to Steve Smith at [email protected].
