The Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association will honour several pioneers in aviation and aviation safety during its virtual fifth-annual AOPA R.A. “Bob” Hoover Trophy Award presentation on February 3. The celebration will take place virtually this year.

What: The Fifth Annual R.A. “Bob” Hoover Trophy Award Presentation

Who should attend: The event, which is typically limited to 200 people and takes place in the historic Terminal A at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Washington, D.C., is free and open to everyone through the livestream.

When: The awards presentation will start at 8 p.m. Eastern on Wednesday, February 3, 2021, and will last about 1 hour. Set a reminder to watch the livestream.

Details: Famed aerodynamicist Burt Rutan, who designed Voyager, the first aircraft to make a nonstop, non-refueled circumnavigation in 1986, and SpaceShipOne, which made three successful suborbital spaceflights in 2004, will be honored with the prestigious R. A. “Bob” Hoover Trophy Award. Rutan has designed 49 manned aircraft, 25 of which the public can view in museums worldwide; 17 are still flying. The first trophy was presented to Hoover himself in 2016, Sean D. Tucker in 2017, Harrison Ford in 2018, and Clay Lacy in 2019.

AOPA will also present the inaugural Brigadier General Charles E. McGee Aviation Inspiration Award to retired Brig. Gen. Charles McGee, a member of the Tuskegee Airmen. In addition to honoring McGee with the first award, AOPA will also present it to its second recipient, U.S. Air Force Maj. Kenyatta Ruffin, an F–16 pilot and commander of the 71st Operations Support Squadron. Ruffin founded the nonprofit Legacy Flight Academy, which helps youth discover their passion for aviation careers and hosts programs that draw upon the legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen.

AOPA Air Safety Institute Senior Vice President Richard McSpadden will present the GA Safety Award to Boris Popov, founder of BRS Aerospace. The company’s whole-aircraft parachute rescue system has saved more than 400 lives; more than 35,000 systems have been installed on experimental, sport, certified, and military aircraft. The award honors those who “have delivered exceptional performance in safety to benefit the entire general aviation industry.”

Tune into the livestream at 8 p.m. Eastern on February 3, 2021!

2020 AMEC/TEAC National Virtual Aircraft Maintenance Conference

"Support from Coast to Coast"

Thursday October 22, 2020; 08:00-18:00 Eastern (Daylight Savings Time)

In light of the cancellation of most (all) of the six regional AME Associations’ annual conferences this year and the devastation caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, AMEC/TEAC (the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers of Canada/Techniciens D’Entretien D’Aeronefs du Canada), which is comprised of the six regional AME associations, has taken the necessary steps to create the 2020 AMEC/TEAC National Virtual Aircraft Maintenance Conference.

The primary purpose of this event is to enable AMEs to have access to recurrent training opportunities. A secondary purpose is to allow industry partners to connect with the AMEs for the purposes of communicating with their customers and colleagues and presenting updates to members of the aircraft maintenance industry.

The event is a one-day, live, online event, accessible via the internet to all of Canada (and beyond). All of the live presentations will be available via a video archive page on the event website for six months after the date of the Live Conference. The eighteen videos from the live event will be augmented by additional videos, submitted by presenting companies, and the entire video library will be available on a web-based video archive, accessible by logging onto the Event Registration Page for six months. This way, if an attendee is unavailable on the event date, they may still access all the presentations (including the eighteen live presentations from Oct 22) until April 23, 2021.
