GEORGIA AVIATION HALL OF FAME BANQUET
SATURDAY, APRIL 24, 2010

Banquet Tickets

Each year, four outstanding aviators are inducted into the Georgia Aviation Hall of Fame. These inductees are presented and honored at the annual Enshrinement Ceremony and Banquet.

At the banquet, inductees are awarded the Georgia Aviation Hall of Fame Gold Medallion of Honor and Achievement. The face of the gold medallion features the state of Georgia with an eagle in flight over the state, symbolizing man's early desire to achieve flight. At the bottom stretching from border to border is the Epps 1907 Monoplane, symbolizing when Ben T. Epps’ first flight turned this dream into a reality for Georgia.  The reverse of the medallion is engraved with the enshrinee’s name and date of enshrinement.

Inductees are also presented with a stainless steel plaque framed in black granite.  As a fitting symbol of respect and honor for each member, these plaques are mounted in the Georgia Aviation Hall of Fame exhibit.  Etched onto the surface of each plaque is a portrait and brief biography of the inductee.  Historical documents, pictures, and other memorabilia related to each inductee are also displayed within the Hall of Fame. 

The 2009 Enshrinement Banquet was held on February 14 th.  Please check back regularly for updates regarding the 2010 banquet. 

Tickets to this event are by invitation only.  If you would like to be a part of this historic evening, call the Georgia Aviation Hall of Fame office at (478) 328-0704 to be placed on the banquet mailing list.
