WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) recently spoke on the Senate floor to honor Kansas aviation leader Ed Bolen, a Salina native and President and CEO of the National Business Aviation Association of 22 year, as he enters retirement.
“Whether advocating for safer and more efficient aviation system, protecting access to our nation’s airports and airspace, supporting workforce development or championing air traffic control modernization, Ed has met every challenge with determination, thoughtful leadership and unwavering commitment to the community he represents,” said Sen. Moran.
“In true Kansas fashion, Ed has always focused on people, on relationships, on bringing others together to accomplish positive outcomes,” continued Sen. Moran. “The mindset has made him not only an effective advocate, but also a valued friend, advisor and respected voice throughout the aviation community.” “On behalf of the United States Senate, I want to thank Ed for his years of service and his steadfast commitment to the men and women who make up the aviation community."
