The RISE ABOVE exhibit is a free panoramic movie theater that inspires and educates people all ages with the remarkable history of the Tuskegee Airmen.

Showing the film on the panoramic screen creates the feeling of being in the cockpit soaring above the clouds in a P-51C Mustang, the signature aircraft of the Tuskegee Airmen. The RISE ABOVE exhibit will be located in the KidVenture area at Pioneer Airport behind the EAA Aviation Museum.
