IAP Business Meeting & ConEd Session
The Business Meeting & ConEd Session held on 25 March was a success with 120 ISTAT Appraisers Program (IAP) members in attendance. Although members missed seeing each other in person this past year, the online meetings resulted in significantly more attendance and discussions representative of the entire membership. A thorough re-entry into service panel was hosted by ISTAT Certified Appraiser John Edwards with Shannon Ackert of Jackson Square Aviation and Tim Roach of Airbus on the panel. ISTAT Appraisers Program Board of Governors (IBG) Vice Chair Olga Razzhivina also oversaw a lively discussion regarding the IAP’s review of its value definitions.
IAP Election
Andy Carlisle stepped down from his role as one of the two Senior Appraisers on the IBG Exams Committee after serving two terms. In addition to grading exams, he led the way in making the Finance Exam more pertinent to better reflect the significant role that leasing plays in commercial aviation. The IAP is grateful for his service. Taking over for Andy is Martin O’Hanrahan of AVITAS Inc., who was selected by a majority of voting-eligible IAP members (all certified members) and members of the IBG to serve a two-year term.
IAP Board of Governors (IBG)
The three open non-appraiser IBG members will be seated after the ISTAT Board meeting later this month.
