2. Download our NAAA 365 App which is the most up-to-date program on-site.
3. No App? No Problem. Pick up a printed Expo Program and attendee bag with sponsor giveaways at registration
4. Earn CEUs! Currently, over two dozen states are offering CEUs for the Aerial Application Technology Research Session, and some states are offering credits for other sessions. CEUs are also being offered for Certified Crop Advisors. Don’t forget to bring your license (we cannot submit your attendance without the license number)! Visit the NAAA website or the app to view the states offering CEUs.
5. Educate yourself at the Kickoff Breakfast, General Session and many other education sessions. View the schedule here or in the app. Hear from Amelia Earhart at the Kickoff Breakfast. She circumnavigated the globe along a 28,000 nautical mile route, in a single-engine aircraft. The General Session will feature a safety session on turning an ag airplane safely.
6. Visit the NAAA Trade Show! Explore 140+ exhibitors and the expected seven aircraft on the floor to conduct business and discover the latest products and services.
7. New and low-time ag pilots, attend Compaass Rose on Sunday and “Ask the Expert” Speed Mentoring on Monday afternoon. These sessions are designed specifically for those interested in the industry or for those with five or fewer years of experience. This is your opportunity to connect with industry veterans in a small setting.
8. Ladies and other support personnel! Check out the fun Support Committee Programming to network, learn from other support staff in the industry and have fun. Monday’s event starts with lunch at The Pirates House and then a shuttle city tour (sold out) and Wednesday offers the Athena presentation and Relationship Drift.
9. Purchase equipment, parts, services and even goodies you might need while supporting NAAA programs at the Live and Silent Auctions. The Live Auction begins Tuesday at 5:30 p.m., and the Silent Auction kicks off at Noon on Tuesday at booth #851. If you plan to bid on the Pratt & Whitney PT6A-34AG turboprop engine, please provide a letter of credit to Deana Kissinger.
10. Connect with old friends and new ones during the Kickoff Breakfast, Welcome Reception (sponsored by UPL North America), Transland Breakfast, Live Auction Reception (sponsored by Syngenta), Pratt & Whitney Reception, Farewell Reception (sponsored by Global Medical Response) and Excellence in Ag Aviation Banquet.
