Montana Aviation Conference

Please welcome 2026 Keynote Speaker:
Nathan K. Hammond

Nathan was born into the airshow world, his first flight was at 2 weeks old on his mother’s lap. Raised in up-state New York, the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome Museum was his childhood playground and a major influence from day one. Fascinated by the thrill and excitement at the weekly airshows, Nathan’s approach to safely demonstrate aircraft for the crowd’s entertainment was developed.

He has truly flown everything from Jenny’s to jets!
