Governance Explanations

Part VI, Section A, Line 2

“There are two Trustees (Mr. Trimble and Mr. Crate) who have a business relationship outside of AFI. These two Trustees are partners in the same company. Another trustee, James Hauslein, serves on the board of Mr. Trimble and Mr. Crate's company.”

Part VI, Section A, Line 6

“The AOPA Foundation's Bylaws state the members shall be those persons who, from time to time, constitute the Board of Trustees of Aircraft Owners & Pilots Association, a non profit New Jersey corporation. Whenever any person shall cease to be a member of the Board of Trustees of said Association, for any reason, he shall contemporaneously cease to be a member of this Foundation, and his successor upon the Board of Trustees of said Association shall forthwith become a member of this Foundation.”

Part VI, Section B, Lines 11A & 11B

“In conjunction with grant thornton llp tax specialists, aopa foundation management reviews the form 990 with the audit committee prior to presenting the return to our board of trustees for review.”

Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

“The aopa foundation's board is provided a written "code of ethics, conflict of interest questionnaire and disclosure form" ("form"). The form requires persons covered (officers, directors, trustees and key employees) to annually disclose and update the form and provide to legal counsel interests that could give rise to conflict(s). Legal counsel reviews the annual disclosures by all covered persons. Disclosures are regularly monitored by counsel, any potentially conflicting or otherwise questionable responses are flagged and the ethics policy is enforced.”

Part VI, Section B, Lines 15A & 15B

“The compensation for the president is set by the board of trustees and compensation committee. The base salary for this position may be adjusted by the board from time to time at its sole discretion. The president is also considered annually by the board for an incentive bonus which is a target percent of base salary. The actual bonus paid is determined by the board based on its assessment of the president's performance and that of the organization against appropriate goals set by the compensation, organization, and human resources committee and the president. Periodic independent reviews of the president's compensation are conducted by outside compensation experts to ensure that the compensation paid is reasonable based on appropriate data as to comparability of compensation paid by similar organizations for positions of similar scope of responsibility. The compensation levels and salary ranges for officers and certain employees of the organization are established based on competitive market data obtained through periodic salary surveys performed by outside compensation experts engaged by the organization. These surveys provide guidance for establishing reasonable compensation rates as compared to compensation paid by similarly situated organizations for positions of similar scope of responsibility. All positions are evaluated and placed in the appropriate grades/salary ranges. An individual employee's salary, within their assigned range, varies depending primarily upon experience and performance. The organization has adopted a "pay for performance" philosophy allowing managers to award merit increases based on an individual's performance against pre-established goals. The organization's annual merit increase budget is approved by the board of trustees based on market surveys. Officers and certain employees also participate in the organization's incentive pay program. Target incentive pay amounts, as a percentage of base salary, are established based on the participant's position. The actual incentive pay awarded is proposed by the executive management team and the president based on their assessment of the participant's individual performance and that of the organization against pre-established goals. The board of trustees and compensation committee review and make a final determination as to the actual incentive awards paid to participants. None of the persons mentioned above participate in the deliberation of their compensation arrangement. The deliberations and decisions of these compensation arrangements are maintained in contemporaneous documentation with our human resources department.”

Part VI, Section C, Lines 18 & 19

“The organization does make available its conflict of interest policy, financial statements, form 990 returns, and form 1023 to the general public. The organization makes available its governing documents to the extent required by law. The public can receive copies by contacting the organization's headquarters. Copies of the returns can be obtained at www.aopa.org/about-aopa/governance and www.guidestar.org.”

Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 2 - Part V, Endowment Funds, Line 4

“Endowment funds are used to support aopa foundation's mission statement. See form 990, part iii for detailed mission statement.”

Fin 48 Footnote - Schedule D, Part X, Line 2

“AFI ("Foundation") follows guidance that clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, including issues relating to financial statement recognition and measurement. This guidance provides that the tax effects from an uncertain tax position can only be recognized in the financial statements if the position is "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained if the position were to be challenged by a taxing authority. The assessment of the tax position is based solely on the techinical merits of the position, without regard to the likelihood that the tax position may be challenged.”

IRS990/Desc0The AOPA Foundation (AFI) is a tax-exempt charitable, educational, and scientific organization that educates the public about the value of general aviation. Our mission is to ensure the future of general aviation by improving safety through the Air Safety Institute, preserving community airports, and encouraging learning to fly for career and personal benefit. Air Safety Institute For the year ending 2015, the AOPA Foundation's educational outreach exceeded 2,000,000 via several channels including online courses (136,683), Accident Case Studies (160,225), Real Pilot Stories (73,115), quizzes (88,715), a blog (79,749), quarterly newsletter for flight instructors (215,246), downloaded publications (22,677), accident database and accident maps (90,950), videos (1,381,808), live safety seminars, webinars, recorded webinar views (30,760), and in-person and online flight instructor refresher courses (9,127). Interactive courses from the Air Safety Institute, a division of AFI, are provided free of charge to all pilots and aviation enthusiasts and are extremely easy to use. Online course completion times range from 20 to 45 minutes, and users can control the pace and can save their progress at any time, allowing them to work in short increments to complete a course over multiple sessions. Safety videos are anywhere from two to 30 minutes in length. In 2015, the AOPA Foundation, through the Air Safety Institute, offered 73 safety quizzes, 40 interactive online courses on topics such as visual flight into instrument conditions, runway safety, decision making, aerodynamics, and radio communications. In addition, 22 Real Pilot Stories, 30 safety videos, 15 Ask ATC videos, 12 Pilot Safety Announcements, 11 webinars, 12 Accident Case Studies, and 105 publications were offered. Each educational product enables pilots to develop and improve their safety knowledge. In addition, the AOPA Foundations Air Safety Institute website offers dozens of presentations to help pilots take advantage of the collective wisdom of the GA community. These include a comprehensive database of National Transportation Safety Board accident reports from 1983 through the present. Providing this material helps pilots learn from the mistakes of others. Similarly, Real Pilot Stories offer detailed first-person accounts of the challenges pilots have faced, the mistakes they have made, and what they have learned from those experiences. The AOPA Foundation also creates special reports from high-profile or common accidents to help pilots avoid the situations that can lead to disaster. Other presentations available on the website include the following, and many more: *Runway Safety This online course takes an in-depth look at safe airport operations with special emphasis on tricky situations from the real world of cockpit distractions, confusing taxiways, and miscommunication. *Transitioning to Other Airplanes Whether moving up to more sophisticated and complex airplanes, or stepping down to basic stick-and-rudder types, this online course covers the inherent challenges of transitioning and helps pilots learn how to manage and reduce their risks. *IFR Insights: A Practical Approach This course goes beyond the textbooks to discuss how pilots can fly more safely in the IFR system by identifying the techniques and procedures used by seasoned pilots, instructors, and air traffic controllers in the real world. *After the Crash: Surviving an Aircraft Accident In this in-person safety seminar, ASI took a common sense approach to maximizing the chances of rescue after a crash, and covered such issues as the essential ingredients of a survival kit, simple ways to help searchers locate pilots, and strategies for survival while awaiting rescue. *Cross Country Challenge When we talk about safety, we normally tackle one issue at a time, but out in the real world any given flight can bring together a whole range of interconnected safety issues. This in-person safety seminar reflected tha
