FROM THE INSTITUTE
The AIAA AVIATION Forum 2026 will open on 8 June, in San Diego, with five days spanning commercial aviation, defense, academia, and emerging technology. More than 300 speakers will appear throughout the forum, drawn from leading aviation companies, defense and civil government agencies, and top research universities around the world. One of the key differentiators of AIAA events is the deep technical content, with more than 800 technical papers to be presented throughout the week.
