AIAA National Capital Section

The National Capital Section (NCS), with approximately 3,000 members, is the largest section within AIAA. Our membership is comprised of members of industry, government, and academia. The mission of the AIAA is to serve the profession, by acting as a catalyst for information flow and creative exchange, providing forums where professionals can meet their counterparts in their own and allied desciplines and fields, present their findings and discoveries, and exchange views. Secondarily, we support the educational process which promotes future generations of aviation and space professionals by nuturing interest among students
