Video briefings highlight hot topics

By Janice Wood · November 11, 2009 ·

The National Air Transportation Association (NATA) recently unveiled the first video in an ongoing series featuring NATA President Jim Coyne called “Coyne’s Video Briefings.” A new video will be released every few weeks focusing on “hot topics” and important current events affecting the general aviation industry.

The first briefing, titled “Fiscal Crisis,” focuses on the current economic climate facing the general aviation industry and contains a brief cameo appearance by U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).

Coyne said the video briefings will give him a chance to provide “some candid perspective as to how these issues impact the bottom line of aviation businesses and what actions our members can take to ensure that their companies are protected from new taxes and unnecessary regulations.”

“In recent weeks, NATA has become aggressive in creating a number of different resources for our members to learn more about what NATA is doing for them,” Coyne said. “We believe that these new video briefings will complement our efforts in creating the NATA President’s Capitol View Blog and the Inside Washington Blog along with joining Twitter, Facebook and other social media networks.

NATA, the voice of aviation business, is the public policy group representing the interests of aviation businesses before the Congress and federal agencies.

    Excellent. I hope these briefings are regular and consistent. I would like to see Craig Fuller from the AOPA do something similar as well.
