Aerospace Walk of Honor
Everybody loves a hero, and Lancaster has been home to more than its share of heroes. For more than 60 years, aviators have performed remarkable feats of heroism in the skies over the City of Lancaster. The Aerospace Walk of Honor recognizes the feats that made history and continues to honor the aerospace breakthroughs occurring over our heads in more recent years. Each year, three to five pilots are selected for their lifetime contributions in testing experimental aircraft at Edwards Air Force Base and other prestigious organizations like NASA, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Northrop Grumman. The annual unveiling of the monuments usually takes place on September 15, 2007 at Boeing Plaza. The unveiling is followed by an evening program and banquet, which is attended by the honorees and their loved ones, City of Lancaster leadership, and the general public. The Lancaster City Council looks forward to lining Lancaster Boulevard with additional tributes of monumental achievement through the Aerospace Walk of Honor program for many years to come.
