Vigilant Aerospace is joining Oklahoma aviation and aerospace professionals at the upcoming “AERO Oklahoma Advocacy Day” at the Oklahoma State Capitol on April 24, 2018. The event is organized by the Oklahoma Aeronautics Commission, a commission appointed by the state’s governor.
Vigilant Aerospace will have a booth in the state capitol building rotunda and we invite you visit us for a quick discussion about your unmanned aircraft operations, for materials on our products and to view video demonstrations of our FlightHorizon detect-and-avoid and airspace management products.
“AERO Oklahoma Advocacy Day” is a free event bringing together industry leaders from Oklahoma’s aviation and aerospace industry. The aviation industry is currently the second largest in the state, after oil and gas, producing just under $44 billion in annual economic activity and is a vital economic engine for the state of Oklahoma.
The event will provide a unique opportunity to gather Oklahoma pilots, product and service companies, airport managers, educators, and users of the Oklahoma Airport System. The event should provide a venue to meet one-on-one with the state legislators and other elected officials and networking opportunities among industry professionals.
