"Salute To Excellence" Recognizes Management And Leadership In
The Industry
Helicopter Association International states that its mission is
to advance the helicopter as a safe, effective method of commerce.
That mission charges the association's members to promote the
highest level of safety and efficiency. This culture of
professionalism is nurtured by the encouragement and recognition of
outstanding achievement and contributions made by individuals and
organizations. Each year the "Salute to Excellence" Awards program
recognizes these outstanding achievements.
The Bell Helicopter Lifetime Achievement Award is one such
award. This award salutes excellence in management and leadership.
The award is granted to an individual who is recognized for long
and significant service to the international helicopter community.
Nominees need not be licensed pilots.
The simplest way to nominate for the Bell Helicopter Lifetime
Achievement Award, or any other of the nine awards, is to complete
an online Nomination Form on HAI’s Web site. From the home
