KITTY HAWK, N.C. - ncarol.com -- It's time to submit nominations for the 2026 Paul E. Garber First Flight Shrine. The shrine was established in 1966 to honor individuals and groups for achieving significant "firsts" in aviation development since 1903. Charles Lindbergh, Mary Feik, John Glenn, Katherine Johnson (Hidden Figures), Gail Halvorsen, Sally K. Ride, Walter and Olive Ann Beech, and most recently Charles McGee among others.
Honorees are selected annually by a National Advisory Committee from a list of nominees submitted to the First Flight Society from the public. The committee accepts a letter of nomination accompanied by supporting documentation and narrows down the finalists. The Board of the First Flight Society votes to select the final honoree.
The nominee(s) may but does not have to be a "first" but rather "…a person, living or dead, who since December 17, 1903, either personally or with the assistance of others, have made such outstanding accomplishments in support of flight operations that they are generally recognized nationally and internationally for their achievements and contributions to aerospace activities."
