OSHKOSH, Wisconsin -- The Islands of The Bahamas was once again a smashing hit at the 2015 Oshkosh Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) AirVenture show, held at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
More than 500,000 aviation enthusiasts and media professionals from sixty countries and 10,000 aircrafts attended the world's largest EAA AirVenture show, which featured daily aerobatic performances, aircraft stimulation and a diverse selection of iconic vintage, military and experimental aircrafts.
The Bahamas team led by Chief Pilot Captain Greg Rolle, Senior Director of Sports, at the Ministry of Tourism (MOT) said, "the AirVenture show provides substantial networking opportunities, business group leads and destination publicity for The Bahamas".
"The increase that we are experiencing in our air traffic to The Bahamas and much of our fly-ins, particularly to our family islands, are a direct result of our attending these types of show".
"In addition to the strong and wonderful relationships we, along with our uniform agencies inclusive the Royal Bahamas Police Force, Bahamas Department of Civil Aviation and Bahamas Customs and Immigration have established, have also been able to work closely with US Federal Agencies on air traffic policies and procedures at these shows" he said.
