The National Aviation Hall of Fame, located at the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base’s National Museum of the United States Air Force, features an expansive gallery outlining the country’s aviation pioneers with the intention of creating a memorial to honor these individual’s actions and educate and inspire the public.

The Hall’s learning center is a comprehensive educational center with seven major sections dedicated to informing the public of the accomplishments of those enshrined and the transformation of aviation history. The seven sections are: the enshrine lab, the history of early flight, the First World War, the Golden Age of Flight, World War Two, Jet Age, and Into Space.

In each section, hands-on activities and interpretive information are available for visitors to become more involved with the content.
