2005 NBAA Meritorious Service To Aviation And Doswell
Awards
The NBAA says it is now accepting
nominations for its two most prestigious awards, the Meritorious
Service to Aviation Award and the John P. "Jack" Doswell Award.
Nominations for both awards are due by February 25, 2005. The 2005
award winners will be officially recognized at the Annual Gala of
the NBAA 58th Annual Meeting & Convention in November
2005.
First presented in 1950, the NBAA Award for Meritorious Service to
Aviation is one of the aviation industry's most prestigious honors.
It is given to those individuals who, by virtue of a lifetime of
personal dedication, have made significant identifiable
contributions that have materially advanced aviation interests.
Such contributions do not necessarily have to be confined to the
field of business aviation. NBAA has presented the Meritorious
Service Award almost every year since its creation. Recent
recipients of the Meritorious Service Award include Stuart Matthews
(2004), Sam B. Williams (2003) and James D. Raisbeck (2002).
In 1987, NBAA created the Doswell Award to honor high standards for
lifelong individual achievement on behalf and in support of the
aims, goals and objectives of business aviation. Recent recipients
of the Doswell Award include Allan B. Lane (2004), Byron M. "Skip"
Reed II (2003) and J. Robert Duncan (2002).
All nominations mailed to NBAA
should include the following material:
- A letter from the nominator introducing the nominee and
explaining why he or she is eligible. This document serves as the
nominator's letter of reference.
- The nominee's professional biography and/or resume describing
the nominee's education, employment, accomplishments and
honors.
- Any supporting documents, including copies of press clippings,
publications and articles related to the nominee.
- Additional letters of reference from persons other than the
nominator are optional.
Nominations should be mailed to the following
address postmarked by February
