As a member of the United States Air Force for over 20 years, Charles Polomsky served as a C-17 pilot, compiling over 2,900 flight hours, including nearly 400 combat hours. He also boasts over 650 hours as a flight instructor. Now retired, Charles Polomsky continues to support the air mobility capability of the US military as a member of the Airlift/Tanker Association (A/TA).
With a membership body comprising active and retired military personnel as well as civilian and corporate military supporters, A/TA promotes and advances military-related aerospace research and technology. The organization's various activities include its annual A/TA Convention, Symposium, and Air Mobility Technology Exposition.
In 2019, the A/TA Convention, Symposium, and Exposition took place October 23-26 at the Orlando World Center Marriott in Florida. The four-day event featured nearly two dozen seminars covering a variety of topics, including flight demands in polar environments, conditioned-based maintenance, and the future of space mobility. Convention programming also included presentations from Col. Gail Halverson, the famed "Berlin Candy Bomber," and Lt. Col. Kathy LaSauce, the US military's first female aircraft maintenance officer and Aerial Port Squadron commander.
Outside of the seminars and presentations, attendees at the 2019 A/TA Convention had the opportunity to take part in networking breakfasts, the A/TA Hall of Fame Banquet, and other social activities. Dozens of exhibiting companies were also on hand to introduce attendees to the latest aviation products and technologies. A/TA members and supporters are now looking ahead to the 2020 A/TA Convention, which will be held October 29-November 1 in Nashville, Tennessee.
