MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. – Members of the Minnesota Aviation Trades Association (MATA) and invited guests will combine their annual meeting with a barbecue on Thursday, August 20, 2015, starting at 3:00 pm at Twin Cities Aviation, Anoka County – Blaine Airport (KANE). This event is free to MATA members and $10 for non-members. All aviation businessmen and women and their spouses and associates are encouraged to attend.
