Documentary A Journey Through the Birthplace of Aviation

A Journey Through the
Birthplace of Aviation

At the National Aviation Hall of Fame (NAHF), we see the work to inspire future aerospace innovators as an essential part of our mission. One of the ways we have chosen to get our message worldwide is through a partnership with Emmy Award-winning filmmakers Adam and Kara White of Hemlock Films for the creation of the NAHF Documentary A Journey Through the Birthplace of Aviation.

Our film follows 9-year-old Noa (dressed as her hero, Enshrinee Bessie Coleman) as she explores Dayton, Ohio, the Birthplace of Aviation. The film celebrates the influence of NAHF Enshrinees and the importance of honoring and preserving our nation’s aviation heritage so that the lives of these heroes continue to inspire the Noa’s of tomorrow.

Narrated by celebrated Astronaut and former NASA Administrator Enshrinee Charlie Bolden Jr. the film also features aviation and aerospace legends Eileen Collins, Sean Tucker, Dick Rutan, Dale Klapmeier and Patty Wagstaff. These Enshrinees all make appearances describing, in their own words, the mission and purpose of the NAHF.
