Senator Ron Johnson (WI) today congratulated Tom Poberezny for his service as Chairman of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA):

“When I first met Tom, I could tell immediately what an extraordinary person he was, and why he has been so successful as Chairman of the EAA. Thanks to his leadership, membership in the EAA has grown dramatically, and AirVenture Oshkosh has become the world’s largest annual general aviation event.

“For years, the EAA has been an asset to general aviation in the United States, and it has helped raise the national profile of Oshkosh, and Wisconsin. They’ve put on a tremendous airshow, which now attracts a half million people to the Fox River Valley annually. Tom is to be congratulated on his fine service.”
