Army Aviation Heritage Foundation and Flying Museum

The Army Aviation Heritage Foundation and Flying Museum is a non-profit organization headquartered at the Atlanta Speedway Airport in Hampton, Georgia focused on the history of US Army aviation.

Establishment
The Army Aviation Heritage Foundation was incorporated in June 1997 by Michael Brady, an airline entrepreneur and the son of Vietnam veteran Major General Morris Brady.

As a result of an amendment to a federal law passed in July 2003, ownership of an L-19 was transferred from the State Department to the foundation.

The foundation's hangar and aircraft, including a C-7 were damaged by a tornado in July 2005. The C-7 was sold to the Cavanaugh Flight Museum two years later.

Expansion
The Arizona Chapter was established in October 2015 after Dave Sale, a member of the Commemorative Air Force, contacted the foundation about putting a UH-1 on display at the CAF Airbase Arizona.

The Gateway Chapter was established on 22 December 2016 and was given an OH-58A project. The following September it acquired a surplus UH-1H.

The Arizona Chapter merged with the SoCal Detachment in January 2020 to create the Southwest Chapter.

 * Legacy Chapter at Atlanta Speedway Airport in Hampton, Georgia
