Friedrichshafen promotes business aviation with specialist conference
35,000 visitors are expected to visit the Aero Friedrichshafen show in Germany next month. The gathering is always a hive of activity for GA enthusiasts and this year a session has been set aside for business aviation.

Aero Friedrichshafen is hosting a dedicated business aviation conference for the first time on Thursday, 11 April in cooperation with the German Business Aviation Association (GBAA). The presentations and subsequent discussions are intended to highlight the diverse areas of application for business aircraft and thus the relevance of business aviation within the aviation industry. The event begins at 0930 in the Forum Foyer East at Messe Friedrichshafen.

Taking place annually at Lake Constance, Aero Friedrichshafen is a leading trade fair for general aviation and this year the show will take place from 10-13 April. Its reputation stems from Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin and other pioneers such as Claude Dornier. The show has become a hot spot for the general aviation community and brings together opinion leaders and stakeholders. At the 27th show in April 2019, 35,000 visitors from 60 countries are expected and more than 700 exhibitors will present their latest innovations at the fair.
