NAAA Addresses the Florida Mosquito Control Association Annual Fly-In

NAAA was invited to address the annual fly-in of public health aerial applicators at the Florida Mosquito Control Association last week. The event was attended by hundreds of pilots across the Sunshine State and throughout the Eastern Seaboard as part of their continuing education as public health applicators. NAAA took advantage of the opportunity as part of its continuing effort to promote its mission of low-altitude aviation safety and to broaden its membership base of aerial applicators. This growth enhances the NAAA’s capacity to provide advocacy, educational, and public relations services to the industry. Andrew Moore, NAAA’s CEO addressed the event’s audience at the Lee Country Mosquito Control District in Lehigh Acres, Florida. Moore underscored NAAA’s efforts to ensure registered pesticides include aerial label use, its aviation and environmental safety efforts, such as securing aviation frequency 122.925 for aerial application communications and its Operation S.A.F.E. application efficacy calibration clinics.
