Representing the Maltese Business Aviation community?
The Malta Business Aviation Association (MBAA) was founded in October 2009 by DC Aviation Ltd., BizAv Services Ltd. and FFF Legal, together with Stanley Bugeja, Adrian Spiteri and Dr. Tonio Fenech. MBAA aims to promote excellence and professionalism amongst our Members to enable them to deliver best-in-class safety and operational efficiency, whilst representing their interests at all levels in Malta and consequently Europe. The MBAA will strive to ensure recognition of business aviation as a vital part of the aviation infrastructure and the Maltese economy. Amongst its top priorities the MBAA will deal with the challenging issues of setting up a successful aircraft register in Malta and promoting Malta as the ideal location to operate and own business aircraft. It will also deal with the challenging issues of the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) rulemaking process, as well as the Maltese Civil Aviation Act. On top of the MBAA list will be access to Malta International Airport including Fees and Charges, Security and better facilities.
