Video: AOPA Members Get Their Say

Highlights From AOPA's May 12, 2026, board of trustees meeting.

A total of 177 AOPA members took time out of their week to attend this week’s annual meeting of the board of trustees amid controversy about governance, finances, and the dismissal of former CEO Darren Pleasance. AOPA banned recordings of the meeting but issued their own recording of the proceedings the day after the meeting. AvBrief’s Warren Morningstar captured the highlights in this edited version, augmented with his own video.
