Personal Courage Wing

The J. Elroy McCaw Personal Courage Wing is a two-story gallery that highlights the stories of courage, dedication, heroism, and the triumph of the human spirit of those involved in fighter aviation in World War I and World War II. The wing features 28 immaculately restored WWI and WWII fighter planes, including one of the finest collections of historic fighters found anywhere in the world—the internationally known Champlin Fighter Collection. Through state-of-the-art exhibits, interactive experiences, and flight simulations, the Personal Courage Wing exhibits tell the stories of not only those who flew but also the people who designed, built, and maintained these amazing aircraft
