Future of Business Aviation VLJ Exhibition    March 2, 2007
 
Charlotte, NC
 
On March 2, 2007, Jetpool held a VLJ expo with the intent of educating over 600 attendees about the multitude of choices involved with owning and operating a VLJ. Attendees enjoyed brief seminars presented by leading industry experts on subjects from VLJ 101, legal, insurance, tax, and financing.
Many potential owners remarked that the seminars were very informative and gave them a better picture of all facets of the aircraft ownership experience.

Show goers were able to climb inside actual aircraft and mockups, enjoying the benefits of comparison shopping costs, specifications, and interiors all in a single afternoon. Overall, the show was a smashing success, with 7 aircraft manufacturers and 11 aircraft (4 aircraft, 5 mock-ups, and 2 informational
displays) represented, along with three key aviation service providers.
