Mission of the Czech Aeronautical Society
The Czech Aeronautical Society is an unincorporated association in the field of engineering, science and technology, with individual and corporate members sharing their professional and personal interest in aviation and astronautics.
The aim of the Association is above all to cater to the professional interests of its members and to attend to their professional and specialist development. The Association organizes various professional events focusing on dissemination of new information and knowledge among its members as well as the broader professional public; it publicizes the field of aviation among the broadest public and, above all, young people. The Czech Aeronautical Society represents its membership as a whole for individuals and groups, both national and international, particularly its counterpart aviation, aeronautical, space and other science and technology-oriented learned societies. As a founding member of the Czech Association of Scientific and Technical Societies it plays an active role in the work and activities of the Association, contributing to common professional science and technology policy. The Czech Aeronautical Society is an active member organization of the Czech National Committee for FEANI, participating in the activities of this European organization of professional engineers, contributing to the publicity and promoting professional qualification of high competence of the engineering profession in the field of aviation and space technologies. The Czech Aeronautical Society fully endorses the FEANI ethical codex of the engineering profession.
It focuses its activities on assistance to secondary schools and technical universities in gaining young people’s interest in studying various branches of aviation; this is achieved through organizing both popular and highly scientifically-oriented lectures on interesting and up-to-date topics. Also, lectures and discussions on history and meetings with World War II veterans are of significant influence; these events serve as an important means of preserving the nation’s memory among young people, contributing towards the formation of the feelings of national pride and patriotism. The most significant individuals who contributed to democracy and freedom in the Czech Republic through their lifelong struggle against the Nazi and communist totalitarian regimes are honorary members of the Czech Aeronautical Society.
The Czech Aeronautical Society provides a professional and social forum for its members; it publishes professional information in the mass media at home and abroad; it expresses its opinion on topical problems in the field of aviation and space technologies; it offers its professional services to state institutions and industry.
