  • The event is organized by one of our COPA Flight chapters
  • The event promotes and/or advances the interests of General Aviation
  • The event encourages a new generation of pilots and aviators

To list your upcoming aviation event, please fill out the following form. We kindly ask that submissions are provided at least 2-3 weeks in advance of your event.

Information for COPA Flights submitting an event:

  • All active COPA Flights must update their information yearly. Please click here if you need to update your status prior to planning an event. A printable PDF form, which can be filled out and e-mailed to the office at copa@copanational.org can be found here.
  • If your COPA Flight status is up-to-date, and you are planning on hosting an event, you need to request your Air Meet Insurance Certificate.
