Kathleen A. Yodice


Yodice Associates manages the Legal Services Plan for AOPA. Kathy Yodice is one of the firm's staff who may provide legal advice to members of the Plan and who provides training to the panel attorneys who represent members of the Plan.

Kathy joined Yodice Associates in the spring of 1998 and represents companies and individuals in all aviation legal matters, including defending air carriers, commercial operators, repair stations, pilots, and mechanics against FAA enforcement actions and assisting entities and individuals in aviation compliance matters and aviation-related business issues.

Kathy began her law career at the FAA where she spent 12½ years handling policy issues, enforcement litigation, medical certification issues, and airport matters. As an FAA attorney, she was a frequent lecturer at Aviation Medical Examiner Seminars and FAA Enforcement Seminars. In private practice, Kathy continues to enjoy speaking on aviation medical and legal issues throughout the year and around the country.

In addition, she authors a regular, monthly column in AOPA's Flight Training Magazine, and has written many articles for magazines published by Women In Aviation International, the Civil Aviation Medical Association, and the Professional Aviation Maintenance Association. Ms. Yodice is an instrument rated private pilot. She learned to fly in the family's 1946 Piper J-3 Cub, and she now co-owns a 1968 Piper Cherokee 180 with her brother.
