Now, to better serve the needs


of our members, VAI has recast the working groups as industry advisory councils (IACs). This new structure allows the IACs to focus less on admin- istrative duties and more on fulfilling their critical role as advisors to the VAI Board and staff. Though the names of the IACs may


differ slightly from when they were working groups, their fundamental purpose remains unchanged: to serve as a key channel for communication between the industry and VAI, provide expertise and identify priorities specific to their sectors, and develop products, tools, and aids when needed. VAI’s current IACs are:


Though the names of the IACs may differ slightly from when they were working groups, their fundamental purpose remains unchanged.


▪ Advanced Air Mobility OEMs ▪ Aerial Firefighting & Natural Resources


▪ Air Medical Services ▪ Aviation Insurance ▪ Helicopter Tour Operators ▪ Restricted & Experimental Category Aircraft


▪ Safety ▪ Small Business Initiatives ▪ Technical & Maintenance


▪ Unmanned Aircraft Systems ▪ Utility Patrol & Construction ▪ Vertical Aviation Operations (includes


the former Flight Operations, Fly Neighborly/Environmental, and Training Working Groups)


▪ Vertical Flight Infrastructure ▪ Workforce Development.


VAI members interested in joining


an IAC should contact Chris Martino at ChrisM@verticalavi.org.
