CAF Rise Above

Experience the Story

Step into a 160-degree panoramic theater and travel back to the skies of World War II. Through two original short films, you'll meet the Tuskegee Airmen and the Women Airforce Service Pilots—aviators who refused to let prejudice define their future. Their stories reveal how courage, skill, and determination opened doors that had long been closed.

As the screen surrounds you, the sights and sounds of flight place you in the cockpit beside these trailblazers. The films share not only the challenges they faced, but the pride they felt in serving their country and proving what was possible when opportunity meets talent.

The RISE ABOVE experience is designed for all ages, inviting visitors to reflect on the past and carry its lessons forward: aim high, believe in yourself, and never quit.
