The National Aviation Heritage Area is an organization that “seeks to conserve, interpret, develop, and promote the historic resources of the National Aviation Heritage Area.” The specific National Aviation Heritage Area is located across eight separate counties in southwestern Ohio. Ohio, which is also the home state of the Wright brothers, actively works to preserve and protect the state’s rich history of aviation by encouraging all pilots to visit its heritage area sites.

The historical sites, which range from museums to seaplane bases, offer a wide variety of fun for the entire family. The following Ohio sites are eligible destinations in this month’s National Aviation Heritage Area Pilot Passport Challenge:

Starting November 1, visitors to the National Aviation Heritage Area sites are eligible to qualify for the National Aviation Heritage Area’s aviation-themed gift basket, which includes coffee mugs, hot chocolate spoons, a Wright Flyer blanket, and aviation books, by checking in at each unique destination through the Pilot Passport feature on the AOPA app. The easy-to-download app is free and available through the Apple Store and Google Play. In addition to the Pilot Passport feature, the AOPA app is a useful tool for all pilots. Whether you need an airport directory or want to listen to an aviation podcast, it’s all accessible through AOPA’s award-winning app.
