NBAA-BACE Offers a World View of Business Aircraft

Aug. 14, 2019
When the business aviation community comes to Las Vegas, NV, Oct. 22-24 for the 2019 NBAA Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (NBAA-BACE), approximately 100 aircraft – from business jets to rotorcraft – will be on display at Henderson Executive Airport (HND) and the Las Vegas Convention Center.
“There is an international nature to the displays, in regard to people coming from all over the world to learn about the latest business aircraft,” said Joe Hart, NBAA director, static displays. “A major draw is the ability for these attendees to talk directly to OEM representatives to have their questions answered; however, the displays also provide significant hands-on intel by offering these attendees the opportunity to sit in the seats and walk the cabins.
“The NBAA-BACE aircraft display is the only location where you can compare business aircraft side-by-side in one location,” Hart added. “The manufacturer’s displays are always quite busy, so appointments are recommended.”
The outdoor aircraft display will feature business aircraft for all missions, from single-engine piston models to large intercontinental business jets and even the latest rotorcraft. At the indoor display, smaller piston singles, light turboprop aircraft and other helicopters will be featured.
“All of the major international OEMs have booked space, including Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier, Honda Aircraft, Pilatus, Dassault Falcon, Gulfstream and more,” Hart said. “This year we are excited to have Tecnam with us for the first time showcasing their newest business aircraft, the 11-seat P2012 Traveller. The aircraft manufacturers never cease to amaze us with their beautiful exhibits, and like previous NBAA-BACE conventions, we expect there will be a few new aircraft announcements.”
For the 23,000 attendees expected for NBAA-BACE, transportation between the Las Vegas Convention Center and HND is easy, with free shuttle bus service running every 10-15 minutes throughout the three show days.
NBAA-BACE is business aviation’s most important annual event, where participants have an unequaled opportunity to view the latest business aircraft, products, technology, and services the industry offers. Held this year at the Las Vegas Convention Center and Henderson Executive Airport, the event offers a premier networking venue, dozens of educational sessions and more.
