Protecting and Promoting Water Flying

The Seaplane Pilots Association's primary focus is to promote safe seaplane operations and to protect our privilege to share our nation's waterways with our recreational, governmental and commercial operators.

Our staff, field directors and members work around the nation to ensure our fair access to water flight. SPA is the only organization in the world solely dedicated to working these issues for seaplane pilots and operators at a local, state and national level. We do this by working with pilots, communities and governing agencies to resolve conflicts and insure fair and equal access through positive outreach, that includes educating policy makers and the public through educational programs and videos so that these decisions can be made from an informed perspective verses ones made on assumptions by those not familiar with seaplanes and seaplane operations.
