Preserving Stories of Courage and Discovery
Your membership will build a place where personal stories will be alive in interactive exhibits representing aviation and military science.

Your support will insure that our children and their families experience individual stories of honor and duty before they are lost forever.
Preserving Examples of Aviation Technology
Your membership will build a center where unique aircraft representing the evolution of aeronautic engineering will be experienced in an environment of changing daylight. Rare technology will be presented in the context of individual lives and important events. Your support will insure that those with the understanding of the workings of historic aircraft can share their irreplaceable knowledge.
Contributing to the Regional Economy
Your membership will build a destination with an annual impact of $26 million to our area as visitors are attracted to Spokane. Conference and event space will generate revenue and attract a wider audience to the benefits of membership. Your support will allow traveling Smithsonian exhibitions from the National Air and Space museum to revitalize the permanent collection, increasing the frequency of patron visits.
