That’s why NBAA has an extensive suite of benefits geared toward informing members about them, as well as operational service changes. Members [can get updates about flight restrictions (opens in a new tab)](https://nbaa.org/member/ops/airspace/alerts/) ; [attend events (opens in a new tab)](https://nbaa.org/events/date/) focusing on aviation taxes, regulations, and risk management; and seek guidance from the [Operations Service Group (opens in a new tab)](https://nbaa.org/about/contact/osg/) . That group offers members assistance with any complicated regulatory question that may be vexing them. **Why it works:** Staying up to date on the latest industry-relevant regulatory information is a challenge for every professional, but when that profession takes you to the skies, it comes with a number of intricate nuances because of international law, ever-changing safety standards, passenger information requirements, and more. Violating any of these standards or regulations, even for the most innocent of reasons, is something every member of the aviation community wants to avoid, making these NBAA benefits that much more useful. **Other benefits:** NBAA isn’t just providing members with information on the latest governmental practices and standards; it is representing the industry [through the association’s advocacy wing (opens in a new tab)](https://nbaa.org/advocacy/) , which contacts local, state, and national representatives to ensure pertinent legislation and regulations are being molded with the aviation industry’s interests in mind. Right now, [NBAA is particularly focused (opens in a new tab)](https://nbaa.org/advocacy/2016-national-asset-vital-issues.pdf) (PDF) on improving the economic viability, security, and modernization of business aviation.
