Vintage Hall of Fame

The EAA Vintage Aircraft Hall of Fame was established in 1993 to honor the outstanding achievements of men and women who share the spirit of EAA’s founder: a passion for the freedom that flight offers. Those inducted into the Hall of Fame are selected by their peers for the myriad of contributions made to their particular realm of flight – and aviation as a whole.
