NBAA: Longmuir Out, Board Appoints Baldwin Interim President And CEO

Longmuir Out

It's been no secret that things have been "tense" of late, at NBAA. But with the recent news that NBAA was losing critical staffers such as Cassandra Bosco and Bob Blouin, it was obvious that all was not right in bizjet-land. The turbulence couldn't last without something hitting the fan... and it did.

The upshot? Shelly Longmuir and Bob Warren are OUT, Cassandra and Bob Blouin are back... but there are, reportedly, more changes in the wind.

Below is the "official" version.... though the inside (and regrettably unconfirmed) scoop is apparently much more interesting... more info shortly.

NBAA Board Chairman Donald E. Baldwin Thursday announced the departure of President and CEO Shelley A. Longmuir. Effective immediately, Baldwin also will assume the position of NBAA Interim President and CEO.

"Under Shelley's leadership, NBAA has been a dynamic force advocating for the business aviation community in Washington," Baldwin began. "We appreciate her service to the organization and wish her the best in her future endeavors.

"Shelley's contributions will be missed," Baldwin continued, "but we must remain as focused as ever on the increasingly complex business aviation issues faced by our Members. I'm confident that the team we have in place will continue to serve our organization at the highest levels."

With aviation safety and homeland security as the cornerstone of NBAA's agenda for the near future, the organization will continue its aggressive work under Baldwin's direction.

A search committee, headed by NBAA Vice Chairman Ken Emerick, will begin work on identifying a new President and CEO. "We will conduct a thorough search, on a timetable to be determined," said Emerick.

Baldwin also announced the departure of Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer and Corporate Secretary Robert P. Warren.

Additionally, Senior Vice President, Operations Robert P. Blouin and Director of Public Relations Cassandra J. Bosco, will continue in their positions at the organization.

"Our Board is as committed as ever to solidifying NBAA's position as the leading aviation trade association in Washington," Baldwin concluded. "This is a time of transition for our organization, but we have great bench strength and talent within our staff, and a long tradition of effectiveness in Washington. We know that those elements will remain in place as we move forward."
