2013 Congressional Visits Day Every year, AIAA members – engineers, scientists, researchers, students, educators, and technology executives – come to Washington, D.C., to take part in AIAA’s Congressional Visits Day program (CVD). They meet with national decision makers to discus critical industry issues in civil aeronautics, civil astronautics and defense. What’s the goal? Through face-to-face meetings with Members of Congress, congressional staff, key administration officials, and other decision makers, Congressional Visits Day raises awareness of the long-term value that science, engineering and technology bring to America. This year’s Congressional Visits Day is scheduled for March 19-20, If you’re interested in participating as part of the Delaware Section team for CVD, please contact DE Section Chair Tim Dominick ( or Looking for 4-5 members to round out our team for this year
