SSAI attended the 2023 Aerospace Day & Legislative Reception on January 25 in Richmond, VA. An annual event, the Virginia Aviation Business Association Reception had a record-breaking attendance this year of nearly 650 people. Attendees included Governor Glenn Youngkin, Lieutenant Governor Winsome Sears, members of the Virginia General Assembly, and hundreds of industry representatives. 


This event highlights and promotes the aviation and aerospace industry in Virginia.
