t the 2014 Aircraft Electronics Association International Convention & Trade
Show in Nashville, Tenn., David Loso was elected the new chairman of the
AEA board of directors. As manager of avionics sales for Jet Aviation St. Louis,
which is based at the St. Louis Downtown Airport in Cahokia, Ill., Loso is squarely on the
front lines of learning what customers want, and helping them get it. His lengthy career
began as a floor technician, progressed to troubleshooting one of the first air-data computer systems in widespread use, and then to avionics department manager for some
of the industry's best-known names. Avionics News caught up with Loso to learn more
about his background and aspirations as AEA's newest chairman.

What does being the AEA's chairman of the board of directors mean to you?
First of all, I consider it a privilege and an honor to serve as chairman of this great organization. I would like to thank the members of the board of directors for selecting me
to serve the AEA in this capacity. I view my time as chairman as a way to give back to this
industry that has provided so much to me in experiences, opportunities and friendships.
I look forward to working with the great staff at the AEA headquarters and serving the
membership of the AEA, drawing on my years of experience and the ideas of the members of our organization.
What are the top two to three issues and challenges affecting the
businesses of the AEA membership?
Without a doubt, I believe the No. 1 issue is the ever-changing regulations and the
effort required by shops of any size to stay current on the regulations. The continuing
assault on general and business aviation by the current administration continues to put
a damper on the full recovery of the industry and, as a result, slows the recovery and
growth of our avionics businesses. While we have shown some positive gains, a supportive administration would accelerate the recovery.
What is your vision for the AEA in your new leadership role?
My goal is to continue the mission of the AEA to serve the membership in the areas
of training, education and our worldwide regulatory activities. Within these areas, the
board of directors and I will identify opportunities to expand on these activities to better
serve our membership as our industry continues to change and challenge us.
