On December 17, 1903, mankind took flight! Wilbur and Orville Wright made history by conducting the first heavier-than-air powered flight.

In the decades that followed, the U.S. ushered in an aviation revolution that changed transportation forever. Happy Wright Brothers Day!

Please take a quick moment to click on the link this evening and contact your Senator and Representative through NBAA's automated voter voice system urging them to vote to pass an extension to keep the FAA authorization from expiring tomorrow.

[NBAA @NBAA]

Urgent! Authorization for the FAA expires tomorrow, Sept. 30, unless Congress acts. NBAA and others are calling on Congress to pass an extension, and we need you to join the call and contact your Senators and Reps now using our Voter Voice resource.
