HAC will be changing a few things in 2017 in Ottawa, that you should be aware of. The Convention will run November 9-11 (Thursday through Saturday), with a Closing Dinner on November 11 in the Shaw Convention Centre. What’s more, we will be breaking the Convention for a couple of hours on November 11 for delegates to attend the Remembrance Day Service at the War Memorial, just two blocks from the Westin. Our tradeshow setup will take place on November 9, and the tradeshow will run November 10, 11 with lots of opportunities for networking! This is Canada’s 150th birthday, and the 100th anniversary of Vimy Ridge, so these events are not to be missed!

HAC Committees Day will take place on November 9, but November 10 will be dedicated to Safety in the Canadian helicopter industry. Stay tuned to the newsletter for our complete roster of Speakers, workshops and Educational Sessions. This year, in response to feedback we received from last year’s survey, we have reached out to Transport Canada for their involvement in our safety focus discussions.
