The “Living Legends of Aviation Awards” will honor General Jack Dailey with the Steven F. Udvar Hazy Award.  Retiring from the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum as director after 17 years, General Dailey’s talents have had broad influence on visitors from far and near our nation’s capital.

The 15th Annual “Legends Awards” are dedicated to astronaut Gene Cernan, who took his last Flight West just days before the 14th Annual Legends Awards. His tribute will include comments by Elon Musk, who considered Gene Cernan his childhood hero and inspiration to dream big and reach for the stars in aerospace.  It will be an unforgettable and historic evening celebrating life, aviation, and contributions in aviation and aerospace.
