Couldn't Attend the 2022 RIAHOF Honors Ceremony? No Problem!

Short bios of all inductees are now online, which include videos of their portion of the ceremony.

After 2 years of social distancing, it was great to return to an in person event! On Saturday, Nov 19, 2022, a sold-out crowd gathered to honor a group which included a living World War II bomber pilot, a Marine helicopter pilot from Barrington killed in action in Grenada, and four heroes from Vietnam: three living Army helicopter pilots who flew hundreds of hours of combat, plus a deceased pilot from the Navy’s only assault helicopter squadron. We honored the manager of the first scheduled commercial airline service to Hiilsgrove/TF Green Airport, as well as the avid private pilot who founded the Gregg’s Restaurant chain. Thank you to all of our attendees, honorees, donors, sponsors and special guests!
