The Midwest Aviation Conference
& Trade Show (MACTS) will be held January 19-21, 2007 at
the newly-renovated Busch Student Center at Saint Louis University.
The MACTS is an event designed to bring every aspect of aviation
together for one exciting weekend of presentations and displays by
professional educators and aviation industry service and product
providers.
The event's organizers say MACTS is for anyone interested in any
aspect of aviation, and best of all it's free! The schedule
includes presentations by world-class aviators sharing with you
their exciting adventures in the wide world of aviation. Record
setting test pilots, military veteran aviators, professionals in
rotorcraft, soaring, ballooning, sport pilot, airplanes, aircraft
manufacturers, aeronautical clubs, associations and more will all
be on-hand and available over the weekend.
Saturday evening MACTS will host the 2nd Annual Midwest Aviation
Awards Banquet where it will recognize select aviators for their
contributions and accomplishments in aviation. Ms. Colleen Barrett,
President of Southwest Airlines will be the keynote speaker for
this exciting event.
For the 37th year in a row, the Greater St Louis Flight
Instructors Association (GSLFIA) will host a Flight Instructor
Revalidation Clinic, the longest consecutive run in the country! At
this event CFIs and anyone interested in learning more about
aviation instruction can attend a very wide variety of
presentations to fit their personal development needs. You can

The Saint Louis Maintenance Safety Counselors will be presenting
their annual IA revalidation clinic Friday, 19 January through

interests to the fullest. MACTS urges everyone to check its website
