Allows CVD participants to converse with key decision makers in Congress on the matters that mean the most to AIAA. Visit teams are organized by state or Technical Committee (TC) discipline. PPC allocates some funding for a set number of CVD participants. AIAA is well-positioned to communicate matters of aerospace policy and critical technical issues in an objective and effective manner. AIAAs newest grassroots program, August is for Aerospace (A4A) allows members to continue the discussions they started at CVD by encouraging interaction between members and elected officials during their August recess. A4A helps display the local impact of the aerospace sector on lawmakers communities, increasing the effectiveness of the messages delivered at CVD. Congressional Visits Day Each year, at least 150 AIAA members from across the United States travel to Washington, D.C. to educate Congress and the Administration on the importance of the aerospace industry to our countrys national and economic security. CVD provides aerospace engineers and scientists with an opportunity to offer their technical expertise to policymakers on a wide range of issue which are critically important to our nation. AIAA strongly believes that because of our long history as the principle aerospace professional society and its unique membership structure that the Institute is well positioned to converse with Congressional decision makers on the important issues facing our community. 81 82 AIAA Honors & Awards Over 80 Individual or Distinct Awards Distinguished Lectureships International Awards Technical Excellence Awards Publication Awards Education Awards Section Awards Joint Society Awards Service Awards (Distinguished, Public, Sustained Service) Special Service Citation Longevity Awards (25-, 40-, 50-, 60- and 70- year membership) There is an official process for Technical Awards!
