Safety De-Brief: Pre Conference
The NWCAS safety briefing has become the annual opportunity for airshow
producers, performers and support services to learn from recent accidents
and/or incidents and share safety best practices that will ensure we have
the safest shows possible.
Military Agencies:
For many years we have appreciated the support of 1 Canadian Air Division,
the Canadian Forces Snowbirds and the USAF Air Combat Command at our conference.
Each agency will provide you with the latest updates on process and procedures
for their show season. This is also a great opportunity to network if
you are a new show or looking to add a military aspect to your event.
Transport Canada and the FAA:
What would an airshow be without Transport Canada or the FAA – well
there just wouldn’t be an airshow actually. Representatives from
each agency will share the practices, procedures and protocols that will
keep your show safe and running smoothly.
Having Fun:
And if none of the above appeal to you, just attend the conference for
our social events. Catch up with your airshow friends and family…
meet new ones and have some fun.
