The Alliance for Aviation Across America Friday commended Mayor Clay Parker of Red Bluff for proclaiming January General Aviation Appreciation Month.
In California, general aviation contributes more than $18.2 billion to the state’s economy.
“Mayor Parker’s proclamation helps highlight the economic benefits and valuable service that general aviation provides to Red Bluff and the state of California,” said Selena Shilad, executive director. “We sincerely thank the mayor and the city of Red Bluff for recognizing this vital industry.”
Formed in 2007, the alliance is a non-profit, non-partisan coalition of more than 6,300 individuals representing businesses, agricultural groups, FBO’s, small airports, elected officials, charitable organizations and leading business and aviation groups that support the interest of the general aviation community across various public policy issues.
