HELI‐EXPO:<br />
The World of Vertical Aviation<br />
Connect. HELI‐EXPO is where the world of vertical aviation connects.<br />
More than 20,000 helicopter industry professionals will be in Las Vegas<br />
March 4 through 7, 2013, for the largest helicopter exposition and trade<br />
show. Some come to network with industry peers, looking for their next<br />
company, vendor, or hire. Others keep abreast of industry developments<br />
through HAI’s forums, town halls, or 14 committee meetings.<br />
Engage. HELI‐EXPO is where vertical aviation means business. In 2013,<br />
1.5 million square feet of the Las Vegas <strong>Convention</strong> Center will be filled<br />
with everything related to helicopter aviation — from the latest and<br />
greatest in avionics to the nuts and bolts of hardware and fasteners. The<br />
HELI‐EXPO show floor is your most cost-effective way to visit multiple<br />
suppliers, possible vendors, and the competition — all at the same time.<br />
Succeed. HELI‐EXPO will help you reach the next level, no matter<br />
where you are in your aviation career. HAI offers professional education<br />
courses designed for rotorcraft professionals, as well as easy ways to<br />
renew your inspection authorization certificate and gain professional<br />
education credits. New in 2013 is the HAI Rotor Safety Challenge,<br />
offering safety tools and techniques that you can apply back on the job<br />
— and all free to HELI‐EXPO attendees and exhibitors. Add the <strong>Helicopter</strong><br />
Foundation <strong>International</strong>’s mentoring panels for students and the HAI<br />
Job Fair, and you’ll see that at HELI-EXPO, the sky is the limit!<br />
