The Chinese and American people share a common heritage that was forged in the skies above China during the Second World War. The purpose of the foundation is to rekindle the spirit of cooperation between the people of China and the United States by celebrating the contributions each has made, together and separately, to aerospace technology, science, commerce and exploration. By educating young people of the next generation as to the accomplishments of their forebears we can provide the inspiration that will spark greater achievement and cooperation in years to come.

The primary goal of the Sino-American Aviation Heritage Foundation will be to promote friendship and understanding between the United States and the China by fostering a practicable dialogue about our common aviation history.
