Today a growing number of Federation members are enjoying the three core benefits of using the aero-domains. First, it immediately identifies an aviation industry focus and increases visibility, particularly when set against the "noise" generated by 30 million .com and .org domains. Second, the registration process adds further strength to brand identity on the Internet, by ensuring that each registrant is a bona-fide member of the aviation community. And third, the aero-domains eliminate the need to register country specific domain suffixes.
Members that have already registered with .aero include:
• www.emf.aero - European Microlight Federation
• www.daec.aero - Deutscher Aero Club e.V.
• www.ultralight.federation.aero - German Ultralight Federation
• www.ushpa.aero - United States Hang Gliding and Paragliding Association
• www.brevet.aero - Royal Dutch Aeronautical Association (RDAA)
• www.fada.aero - Federación aragonesa de los Deportes Aéros
• www.dmfv.aero - Deutschen Modellflieger Verbands
• www.hepta.aero - Association d'Histoire et Pionniers de la Technologie Aéronautique
The benefits of .aero membership will be of particular interest to those taking part in the FAI's 2009 World Air Games in Turin. This will be the biggest gathering of air sports in the world, bringing together world champions and top competitors in 10 different disciplines. Aviation-based organizations and companies preparing for the Games can add real value to their visibility by joining the world's top airlines, airports, manufacturers and service companies within the .aero community.
