Around the World with CSDA

CSDA has chosen a speaker who has seen the whole world from a different perspective—over nine short days—to provide attendees with an exhilarating keynote presentation
during the association’s 44th Annual CSDA Convention & Tech Fair, March 8-12, 2016, at the JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa in Palm Desert, California.

Dick Rutan made history in December 1986 after completing a nine day, three minute and forty-four second non-stop and non-refueled flight around the world, setting records that remain unchallenged today.

He was awarded the Presidential Citizen’s Medal of Honor by President Ronald Reagan four days after the epic landing and has since been inducted into the National Aviation Hall of Fame.
