Our Saturday night banquet<br />
recognized many members for their<br />
service to ABS and assistance with<br />
the Convention. Outgoing president<br />
Lorne Sheren thanked Steve Blythe<br />
for six years’ work on the ABS Board<br />
<strong>of</strong> Directors, including serving as<br />
president in 2010, and introduced<br />
2011-2012 ABS president Keith<br />
Kohout. Keynote speaker was Rod<br />
Hightower, President and CEO <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Experimental Aircraft Association.<br />
Rod’s talk centered on the work EAA<br />
is doing that directly affects ABS<br />
members and owners <strong>of</strong> certificated<br />
airplanes like our <strong>Bonanza</strong>s and<br />
Barons.<br />
I’d like to give a final thanks to all<br />
the ABS staff, Board members, Technical<br />
Advisors, and volunteers who<br />
made the 2011 ABS Convention in<br />
Las Vegas a success! —WH<br />
