This non-profit association has been established by an international group of aviation professionals to serve the collective needs of the aerospace heritage community.

The mission of the Aviation Heritage Group is “to facilitate the exchange of information, provide mutual support and encourage cooperation among organizations, institutions and individuals working all over the world to preserve aviation heritage”.

To make this initiative a success, a strong membership base is essential.

Please consider the potential benefits available to you for a minimal annual outlay.
