LABACE 2012 Goes for Gold and Gets It

The ninth annual Latin American Business Aviation Conference & Exhibition (LABACE) took place from August 15 to 17 in São Paulo, Brazil, a country and a region where the industry sees a bright, long-term future.

More than 75 airplanes crowded the static line at Congonhas Airport, from single-engine turboprop business aircraft, such as Cessna’s Grand Caravan and the Pilatus PC-12, to bizliners like the Airbus ACJ318 and, for the first time at the show, an Embraer Lineage 1000.

AIN Publications published the news as it happened in a dedicated section of AINonline. For an in-depth report of this important business aviation event, check out the September issue of Aviation International News, in print and online.
