Advocacy is AOPA’s primary task and was one of the main reasons why AOPA was formed in the first place some 50 years ago. But how do we go about advocating the aviation industry?

How AOPA Advocates

The board of directors and the staff of AOPA work tirelessly to build effective relationships with Government representative and ministers that will highlight aviation related issues to those that make decisions.

AOPA also highlight aviation issues in the media through similar contacts.

When extra action needs to be taken then AOPA members will need to be called in to action. AOPA members can assist when required with correspondence to their local members, Government Ministers or the media.
