Meetings Start In Europe In May, End In Australia In
November
If there's one primary theme the Aircraft Electronics
Association would like its 2008 convention attendees to leave
Washington, DC with, it's that AEA is a truly international
organization, with members in 35 countries. To drive that point
home further, AEA has plans for three international meetings before
the end of 2008.

annual AEA Canada Meeting in September; and its 11th annual AEA
