To Members of the I.A.S.:
Enclosed is your membership card and statement of dues for the year 1949-1950.

The past year has been the most active in the history of the Institute. Over and above our normal schedules of meetings and field trips, we have held our Second International Conference with the Royal Aeronautical Society of Great Britain, and we have brought to completion two new facilities on the West Coast - our Western Headquarters Building in Los Angeles, and out regional activities building in San Diego. Meanwhile our publications and services have been continuously improved and expanded. 

Membership figures continue to grow. Our Roster now includes over 7,000 names of the country's top aeronautical scientists and engineers. Our student enrollment has climbed to 4,000. There are active I.A.S. Sections in nineteen U.S. and Canadian cities, and over sixty Student Branches in schools and universities.

By paying your membership dues promptly you will assist the management of the Institutes to continue to improve I.A.S. services which are essential to the health and well-being of the aeronautical sciences in America.

Sincerely yours,
