Hanger Hangout
Aman Rao
The Hangar Hangout is BCAC’s flagship relationship building event series for all. The Hangar Hangout Committee at BCAC organizes and hosts these at local businesses and organizations. Our goal is to provide a time and place every month for everyone in our industry to build impactful relationships.
Even though we all know how important relationship building is in our industry, due to aviation’s 24/7 nature and geographically wide operations, there is a very real gap in networking opportunities. Our committee is solving that by organizing FREE networking events every month, with a consistent average attendance of 50+. If you’d like to volunteer with us, the work would include reaching out to the local industry that would like to host an event, making and distributing social media posts, and day-of set up and tear down. Come join our extremely enthusiastic team!
