AIAA is the world's largest technical society dedicated to the global aerospace profession. With more than 35,000 individual members worldwide, and nearly 100 corporate members, AIAA brings together industry, academia, and government to advance engineering and science in aviation, space, and defense. To be selected for the grade of associate fellow, an individual must be an AIAA senior member with at least twelve years' professional experience, and be recommended by a minimum of three current associate fellows. Only two percent of the AIAA's 35,000-plus members are elected as associate fellows each year.
