With just over a month remaining until the ribbon-cutting ceremony kicks off the 10th Annual European Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (EBACE2010), the event's organisers are very optimistic about the prospects for a strong show, which will be held May 4-6, 2010, in Geneva, Switzerland.

As of 1st, Apri nearly 400 Exhibitors, a number comparable to the count for last year, had registered to fill Halls 6 and 7 at Geneva Palexpo. Additionally, the EBACE2010 Static Display of Aircraft scheduled for Geneva International Airport is sold out with 63 aircraft participating and a waiting list in place. Furthermore, a full slate of education sessions and other programming is planned, to provide event attendees with the latest information on the issues facing the business aviation community. The event is co-sponsored by the European Business Aviation Association (EBAA) and National Business Aviation Association (NBAA).

While the event will focus on the emerging trends, challenges and opportunities on the horizon for the industry, EBAA and NBAA also plan to mark the tenth anniversary for EBACE by showcasing several major industry milestones since the launch of the first show in 2001.

The two associations have produced a white paper, "A Decade of Accomplishment: Top 10 Milestones in European Business Aviation in the Past 10 Years," that details the significant developments for the European business aviation community over the last ten years, from steady marketplace growth, to a heightened recognition of the industry's benefits, to measureable progress on the legislative and regulatory priorities for business aviation.
