Supplier Hospitality Information
Many suppliers wish to meet with customers during the General Session.
In addition to casual contact during the meeting, many suppliers
will use hospitality suites. To maximize the opportunities for contact,
suppliers are encouraged not to have functions outside the hotel
over the dates of the meeting.
AEEC General Session and AAI
The Airline Avionics Institute (AAI) is an independent organization
of avionics suppliers. AAI is a membership organization with dues
