Membership Grace Period Ends Saturday—Renew Your NAAA Membership Today - National Agricultural Aviation Association

Thank you for your support as a 2024 member of NAAA. We request your continued support by renewing your NAAA membership for 2025 today. While you have been busy aiding farmers to produce a safe, affordable, and abundant supply of food, fiber, and bioenergy, NAAA has been busy making sure low-altitude airspace is safe for your aerial application business to operate, as well as ensuring that you have the pesticide products you need to do your job. Several of NAAA’s accomplishments this year, on your behalf and to ensure your success, include:

NAAA is now offering health and life insurance options for members. More details available here.
Due to NAAA’s advocacy, the FAA just issued a proposed rule to mark and log into a central database, meteorological towers between 50 and 200 feet.
Also due to NAAA’s advocacy, the DOT’s FMCSA, has issued a proposed rule allowing states to waive the HazMat requirement for Class A CDL holders hauling no more than 1,000 gallons of aviation-grade jet fuel for agricultural aircraft operations, thereby increasing the supply of available drivers to ag aviation operations.
After years of effort, the EPA finally accepted NAAA’s recommendations to improve the accuracy of the models used to estimate the amount of drift from aerial applications. This will result in mitigating aerial buffers and preserving aerial use language on pesticide labels.
NAAA worked with the FAA to secure the use of radio frequency 122.925 for radio communications between agricultural aircraft to safely operate.
NAAA successfully advocated that the enacted FAA Reauthorization Bill require FAA to ensure airspace safety for crewed aircraft as part of its soon-to-be-released policy for uncrewed aircraft to operate beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS).
Since 2017, NAAA has submitted over 300 comments to the EPA to keep aerial application use language on pesticide labels.
NAAA and NAAREF have grown the C-PAASS certification learning center to include online learning for aerial applicators who want to augment their professionalism and be recognized and rewarded by their insurance providers, pesticide manufacturers, regulators, and customers.

Please make it a priority to renew your NAAA membership—the payoff far exceeds what you will spend in dues in the form of effective advocacy that reduces regulation and taxes affecting your aerial application business and trade association membership dues are tax deductible.
