Since 1994 (Warsaw, Poland), every second year, the seminar has been organized as a general forum for exchange of information about progress in aerospace engineering research. The unique character of the seminar is given by its focus also on aircraft engineering education and inclusion of juried student session.

Over the years, the seminar has travelled from Warsaw (Poland), through Vilnius (Lithuania), Riga (Latvia) to Tartu (Estonia), Brno (Czech Republic), then to Warsaw, Brno, Vilnius and this year returns to Warsaw again.

Current Seminar is hosted by Polish Society of Aeronautics and Astronautics together with Institute of Aviation and Warsaw University of Technology. See READ-2016 leaflet.
