Regional Representatives

For nearly two decades, AOPA has deployed a network of experienced regional representatives to extend the association's reach into the state and local public policy environment across the United States. These representatives are charged with gathering intelligence about state legislative and airport initiatives, building relationships with key aviation decision-makers, and advocating for the AOPA membership on a range of critical issues nationwide.
