Mountain Air Cargo, CSA Air, and Worldwide Aircraft Services attend Annual RACCA Event

Mountain Air Cargo, CSA Air, and Worldwide Aircraft Services had the opportunity to meet with FedEx leadership and members of the feeder network at the Annual Regional Air Cargo Carriers Association (RACCA) event held in Scottsdale, AZ, earlier this month. RACCA is dedicated to representing and serving the interests of our member Part 135 and Part 121 cargo carriers. More than 50 FAA-certificated air carriers are regular members, along with many companies that support of these operations.

Recognizing that this dynamic, growing industry lacked an effective and dedicated voice representing it before the federal government, the aviation community, and the media, RACCA was formed in 2002. Since then, the association has been extremely fortunate to include as members more than 95 percent of all aircraft operators eligible for membership. This means about 1,000 aircraft serving smaller communities each day in the United States and internationally are operated by RACCA members.

The following were the topics discussed that this year’s event:

• Workforce Development and Engagement
• Emergency Response Planning / Crisis Management
• Mental Health Initiatives
• Emerging Technologies

By establishing and fostering close industry relationships, MAC, WASI, and CSA Air have achieved successes such as – Forging strong working relationships with other aviation organizations, improving relationships with manufacturers and suppliers, ensuring a safe and secure operating environment, and promoting modernization of existing regulations impacting our world today. We are grateful for the opportunity to attend and participate in such meaningful industry events.
