Together, We Can Grow Aviation In Minnesota!

by Cassandra Isackson
Director, Minnesota DOT Office of Aeronautics

In my column in the Feb/March 2015 issue of the Midwest Flyer Magazine, I stated: “Please invite me to come to your airport meeting, whether with the airport commission or board, the EAA, a fly-in or another important aviation event. I look forward to the opportunity to answer questions about what we are doing to get money out there to benefit your airport. It also gives me a chance to meet you face to face, and you have an additional opportunity to share valuable update information that will help us do an even better job for YOU!”

I am still hoping to hear from many of you before the summer season ends. But in the meantime, I wanted to let you know that your Minnesota Office of Aeronautics will have a booth at the Minnesota Maintenance Conference in March, Minnesota Pilots Association gathering and Minnesota Council of Airports Conference in April, Discover Aviation Days in May, and the Mankato Air Show in June! So you can see that we are making a concerted effort to meet you at a variety of aviation venues around the state.

We look forward to meeting you and hearing from you. We, you and I, have lots of information to share with each other, all for the improvement and betterment of aviation throughout Minnesota.

One of the best-kept secrets about aviation is that it is more than just a team of like-minded individuals…it is a family! We all have a tremendous love and appreciation for essentially all-things aviation. So please, come visit our booth at these events, or contact me at the Office of Aeronautics and we will set a date and time that I can come to your airport commission or board meeting, your fly-in, or to another important aviation event in your community.

Together, we can grow aviation in Minnesota!
