Support the future of aerospace!

Sustaining the legacy of the Wright brothers.

The National Aviation Heritage Area (NAHA) consists of the world’s largest military aviation museum, the birthplace of the Wright brothers and Neil Armstrong, and the National Aviation Hall of Fame. We overlap a National Water Trail and National Recreation Trail, and we house one-of-a-kind experiences found nowhere else in the world. For a full list of our sites, click here.

The National Aviation Heritage Area is the recognized center of aviation heritage tourism and aerospace innovation, sustaining the legacy of the Wright brothers. Our mission is to preserve and develop the assets in the National Aviation Heritage Area and promote the heritage and future of aerospace.

The National Aviation Heritage Alliance is a 501(c)3 nonprofit and the management entity of the heritage area, and while we do receive some federal funding, for every federal dollar we are granted, we must raise at least $1 in matching support. Consider making a tax-deductible donation or spread out your investment with a reoccurring donation.
