An astronaut, history-making pilots, aviation policy makers, and a commercial aerospace pioneer make up the Class of 2023 National Aviation Hall of Fame (NAHF).
The NAHF, founded in 1962, is the only Congressionally chartered aviation hall of fame in the United States. Each year, the NAHF Board of Nominations, a body of more than 130 aviation professionals nationwide, select class members from the world of aviation and aerospace. The selectees are drawn from air and space pioneers, both living and posthumously. Thus far 254 people have been honored.
