Frank G. Brewer Trophy
The Frank G. Brewer Trophy is awarded annually to an individual, a group
of individuals, or an organization for significant contributions of enduring
value to aerospace education in the United States.
Mr. Frank Brewer explained why he created the award following World War
II: “Because of my two boys and the other million and a half like them that
this war has put into the air, and because aviation has climbed to America’s
No. 1 industry and will offer the greatest opportunities to youth in the
postwar days, I wanted very much to make some kind of contribution to Youth
Aviation Education.”
