Founded in 1983, the International Society of Transport Aircraft Trading (ISTAT) is the premier international, not-for-profit organization dedicated to providing aviation professionals with forums for increased networking and educational opportunities. ISTAT currently represents more than 5,000 members worldwide who are involved in operating, manufacturing, maintaining, selling, purchasing, financing, leasing, appraising, insuring or other activities related to the commercial aviation sector.
The International Society of Transport Aircraft Trading Foundation (ISTAT Foundation) was founded in 1994 to support individuals and institutions that promote the advancement of commercial aviation and humanitarianism.
Funding for programs is provided by annual grants from ISTAT and contributions from individuals and companies. The ISTAT Foundation Board of Trustees, a separate entity from the ISTAT Board of Directors, manages fundraising and programming that meets the Foundation’s objectives.
In the past fews years some Delegates of the AerospaceMBA did succeed in getting ISTAT scholarships (click here to know more about this): Mrs. Cecilia Skroder or Mrs. Ainur Maiussova in 2018.
Here is the video of the ISTAT Foundation Annual Report where Ainur and the AerospaceMBA are featuring (around 1’35 from the beginning ;)).
