Georgia Aviation Hall of Fame

 Georgia Aviation Hall of Fame is dedicated to recognizing and publicizing Georgians who have succeeded in aviation. 

The Georgia Aviation Hall of Fame is a proud partner in the new Georgia World War II Heritage Trail. Launched in February 2021, the Trail is made up of ten sites across the state, which together provide a new experience for visitors, families, and groups. Southern states were critical to the war effort during World War II (1941-1945), and none more so than Georgia. Over 300,000 Georgians served in the military, and thousands of civilians worked in rapidly expanding defense industries.  (Co-located with another trail partner, the Hall of Fame is located on the second floor of the Century of Flight Hangar of the Museum of Aviation at Robins Air Force Base in Warner Robins, GA.)

Trail visitors can take flight in a World War II airplane, build a Liberty ship, explore a pilot training base, march in the boots of the Band of Brothers, and learn the personal stories of courage, character, and patriotism displayed by the men and women involved. Suggested routes for North Georgia, Middle Georgia, and the Coast make it easy for visitors to experience two or three locations over a weekend. A Trail “passport” has been created so visitors can track their progress along the route, debrief their visit, and receive a confirmation stamp with the “V for Victory!” Discover Georgia’s legacy of inspiring wartime stories at the sites that make up the new Trail.
