GBAA Mission
The Georgia Business Aviation Association (GBAA) exists to support companies in Georgia that use aircraft to conduct their business. The organization seeks to improve operational efficiency and safety, encourage collegial relationships and the sharing of operational best practices among members, and foster constructive dialogue with government and airport authorities about issues affecting members. GBAA also works to build cooperative relationships with regulatory and other agencies so that the important contributions of business aviation to commerce and the national economy are better recognized and understood.
