Do you ever wonder who helped form model aviation as we know it? Have you ever been curious about how our hobby has become what it is today? With a hobby as widespread and ever-changing as ours, it's important to look back and learn about the individuals who helped mold model aviation into the exciting, joyous pastime that we've come to love.
It's because of this rich history that the AMA Foundation has decided to launch a new video series called Flightline Founders! This video series, to be launched the last week of January 2026, will touch on influential individuals who played a part in the creation and/or evolution of model aviation. The first episode will focus on the Wright brothers, and we can't wait for you to see it!
We're looking forward to celebrating the history of our hobby with each of you. Keep an eye on the AMA Foundation's Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and website for the video series!
