Over 60 years ago, aviation was growing in maturity
and many cities and towns were coming to realize that
that aviation was an evolving transportation system that
progressive communities must recognize. In 1938, at a
time of spirited enthusiasm in aviation, a group of civic
leaders met in the city of Nelson and formed the British
Columbia Aviation Council (BCAC).
The BC Aviation Council was the first of its kind in Canada.
Membership was afforded to all city and rural municipalities
and recognized Boards of Trade throughout the province.
It was an organization formed primarily to promote the safe
and orderly development of aviation and aviation services
in British Columbia.
The Belt of Orion Award for Excellence was presented to the
British Columbia Aviation Council in 1999. |
