Washington, DC, August 13, 2003 РMembers of the business aviation community worldwide are invited to attend the 2nd Annual Latin American Business Aviation Conference & Exhibition (LABACE2004), the only Latin American exhibition of its kind to focus exclusively on business aviation, from April 15 to 17, 2004, in Ṣo Paulo, Brazil. This event is organized jointly by the Associa̤̣o Brasileira de Avia̤̣o Geral (ABAG) and the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA).

When LABACE debuted in March 2003, it exceeded all expectations. Nearly 3,000 registered Attendees viewed the products and services of 88 Exhibiting Companies at the Transamérica Expo Center, and the Static Display at nearby Congonhas Airport featured 16 aircraft. Potential topics to be addressed at LABACE2004 include:

  • Safety and security initiatives
  • Business helicopter operations
  • CNS/ATM and equitable access
  • Future of fractional ownership in Latin America
  • Aircraft ownership options
  • Brazilian regulatory update
