The Russia Aeronautical Society, founded in 1880 in St. Petersburg and comprised entirely of aeronauts (balloonists), was Section VII of the Imperial Russian Technical Society.
General A. N. Sigunoff was the addressee at headquarters, 1906. It appears that its official journal was the proceedings of the Society. Flying grounds were at Gatchina.
