National Aviation and Space Exploration Wall of Honor

Find an Honoree's Name

More than 15,000 names are listed on the Wall of Honor. Some are well known such as Orville and Wilbur Wright, but most are everyday heroes who share the passion for flight.

You can search for an Honoree by first and last name. If your Honoree's name does not appear when you provide the full name, try using the last name and first initial (without a period).

Your search results give the exact location of the name on the Wall of Honor. If we have received your Wall of Honor registration, but your Honoree's name is not yet inscribed on a panel, a notation reading "pending engraving" will be returned in the search results.

If you are visiting the Udvar-Hazy Center and want to see your honoree's name, please bring the location information with you. If you do not have the information at hand when you come, please stop by the Welcome Center inside the Museum for assistance.

Find an Honoree's Profile

As part of each Wall of Honor contribution, donors may submit a short profile of the Honoree. These profiles are kept on file at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center and are now being prepared for online viewing. If yours is available online a "profile" button will appear in the search results. Click the button and the profile will open.

We will be adding Honoree profiles monthly, so check back for updates.
