Jet Aviation at Palm Beach (Fla.) International Airport hosted its 15th annual La Bella Macchina (Italian for “the beautiful machine”) on January 22 to benefit the Boys & Girls Clubs of Palm Beach County. Held in conjunction with the annual Cavallino Classic Ferrari event, La Bella attracted 1,000 guests to view about a dozen business aircraft and more than 100 Ferraris, as well as participate in the silent auction that raised $20,000 for the Boys &Girls Clubs.
Aircraft on display included the Gulfstream G650ER; Nextant 400XTi and G90XT; Embraer Legacy 500; and Sikorsky S-76D. Before the event, Jet Aviation hosted an aviation career seminar and tour for 60 kids from the Boys & Girls Clubs to educate them about business aviation and career opportunities within the industry.
