"Hello Mark, This was my first time at NWOC, and the
long trip from Norway was well worth it. As a
warbrid pilot and engineer, I gained important knowledge
and made many new friends. I'll be back next
year."

NWOC - National Warbird
Operator Conference
February
17- February 20, 2011
Pensacola, Florida
Thank you to everyone who attended the
2010 NWOC Conference!
Click here for photos from NWOC '2010
Founded in 1993, the annual NWOC
event brings together warbird owners, operators, and
museum directors to address particular events facing
warbird owners and to discuss common goals related to
the ever-changing economics, operations and regulations
pertaining to flying ex-military aircraft.
NWOC focuses on the
exchange of ideas and information concerning the safe
operation and restoration of warbird aircraft. This
unique educational conference offers programs to enhance
pilot skill and knowledge, expand aircraft maintenance
technician and restorer knowledge, develop awareness of
medical and insurance facts, and address
aircraft-specific topics to ensure continued flight for
these unique historic aircraft. As one participant
remarked, "…we are not owners of these treasures, but
rather caretakers who ensure that future generations can
better understand history." That statement emphasizes
the importance of the educational goals of NWOC.
