Icons of Aviation Awards – Nominations Closing
The categories and nominations of the Icons of Aviation Awards 2017 have been open for two weeks to allow changes to be made where necessary. This process will finish on 15 September. Therefore, if you have a request for a change of category to be made, please make it before this time. Likewise, if you are not yet an AsBAA member but wish to participate, please contact us before 14 September to make arrangements.
*Please note that members may now be nominated in more than two categories if this request can be justified. Those members that have a legitimate claim to more than two nominations should send their request and explanation to Cathy Chiu before 14 September*.
Please check the following important notes regarding categorisation, nominations and voting. New for 2017 is the addition of the Trailblazer Award in which AsBAA will recognise an individual that has made an impact on the industry in the last year.
