    After the success of Toowoomba, we are heading up north to beautiful Darwin on the Thursday 30th June & Friday 01 July 2022!

    With a pre-roadshow Sundowner Social on Wednesday 29th June at

    Darwin Airport, our member Aviation Australia welcomes all RAAA members to their Darwin Campus.

    We have Darwin Mercure Airport as the Roadshow venue. However, due to a change in availability, they have more availability of rooms at their sister hotel Novotel Darwin Airport which is 1 min walk across. Exciting Speakers & Program. We will have talks on “Towards Net Zero for aviation” with Dr Emma Whittlesea from Griffith Uni and Graeme Potger from Qantas. We’ll hear from Alan Milne, CEO of Skytrans on their latest plans and a talk on “Building the Albatross” from Dan Webster of Amphibian Aerospace. We have Angus Mitchell, Chief Commissioner of the ATSB talking about latest safety trends, and we’ll also have speakers from CASA and Northern Territory Airports.

    Darwin Sponsorship Opportunities – ALL SOLD OUT!! Thanks to Cobham Aviation for Dinner sponsorship, Pacific Turbine Brisbane for the Networking Brunch and TAE Aerospace for the welcome lunch sponsorship, all helping to keep the ticket costs down for attendees!!

    Accommodation Offer

    We have arranged a special rate of $260 per night, room for the Standard Queen Room. This is an excellent value considering the peak holiday season of NT! If you would like to stay and utilise this special rate, you can contact the hotel on 08 8920 3333 or at [email protected] and quote either of these references RAAA or 446979 to get access to these special rates for your stay during RAAA Darwin Roadshow. Remember to book early your respective accommodation, whichever options you go with, to avoid disappointment as Territory Day is also a big night there with fireworks on the 1st and school holidays happening from 27th of June.
