Programs and results
What we aim to solve
The Aviation Industry is in need of many new people. The National Aviation Safety Foundation suffers from the same. We need people and funding. In the mean time several commercial efforts accomplishing about the same as our foundation have developed. We keep improving and expanding , however our revenue is not keeping up with the pace.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Aviation is World Wide
Held over 750 aviation safety seminars throughout Florida attended by certified flight instructors and other general aviation personnel.

AirVenture , Oshkosh

Plane Time
Rough Overview of Plane Time
This show would be similar to shows like “Good Morning America” - It would have a limited studio audience that would enjoy the show then see the Museum and other components of the ACE complex at SUN ‘n FUN. It would give added value to the guests visit.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Our goal is unchanged . We are involved in promoting Aviation and Aviation Safety through Television and Radio over the airwaves and via the internet.

What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Our volunteer production crew members are "professionals" in their own right, from airline crews to TV and broadcast professionals. They contribute their time and expertise to make the various projects successful. During the year we provide extensive support for projects, perform safety seminars and provide a wide dissemination of safety related information to all interested parties. These activities are recorded and produced specifically for the individual organizations who we "partner" with to promote aviation safety across the spectrum.
Simply stated, we are an organization that promotes aviation and aviation safety. The "broadcast" and "production" parts of the operation are tools (among others) that we use in order to accomplish those goals.

The mission of the General Aviation Awards program is to recognize individual aviation professionals on the local, regional, and national levels for their contributions to aviation, education, and flight safety.
