Continued from page 33

Mike Farleigh with Aeroflex presents his company’s latest products
during the AEA New Product Introductions. More than 25 new
avionics products and systems were introduced to the market.

Shortly after the opening of the AEA Exhibit Hall, Peter Flanagan receives
a hug from Jamie Luster of Cobham Commercial Systems after Flanagan
placed an order on behalf of his company, Pacific Avionics Pty. Ltd.

No party in Vegas would be complete without an appearance by “Elvis,”
who joined showgirls in getting photographs taken with attendees at the
AEA’s First-Nighter Party. The photos were sponsored by Garmin.

Las Vegas will use negative numbers to describe our
personal experiences.
But that wasn’t even close to the case with the
56th annual AEA International Convention &
Trade Show. Some 1,500 of your friends, peers and
competitors working in companies like avionics
manufacturers, distributors and repair stations
came from all points of the compass to attend the
four-day event. In addition to more than 75 hours
of regulatory, technical and business management
training, plus professional development and plenary
sessions, there was an exhibit hall filled with the
latest avionics technologies from more than 130
exhibitors. Twenty-seven companies introduced

industry on opening day.
As if that wasn’t enough, free aircraft electronics
technician certification and endorsement exams
were administered to convention attendees, in
partnership with the National Center for Aerospace
and Transportation Technologies, highlighting
another core AEA activity: education and training. In
fact, the convention’s opening ceremonies included
announcements by the AEA Educational Foundation
of 26 students awarded individual scholarships for the
2013-14 academic year worth more than $125,000.
The Foundation, which was created in 1990 to further
the industry’s educational needs, also administered
the inaugural Universal Avionics Systems Corp.
Scholarship, a $1,500 annual award. David Hughling,
of Fort Worth, Texas, was the scholarship’s first
recipient. Since its creation, the AEA Educational
Foundation has awarded more than $1.5 million to
students seeking careers in the aircraft electronics and
aviation maintenance industry.
It’s all about giving back to and promoting the
avionics industry, and awarding scholarships is just
one of many ways in which the AEA fulfills that
role. Another example is AEA member recognition
of three individuals and companies for their
service and participation in the industry, and in
the association. For 2013, Dan Derby, a long-time
