On November 16, 2009 the Board of Directors approved a plan to closeout Honor Flight Tennessee Valley after the two flights on April 24, 2010 and May 29, 2010. However, due to the overwhelming response, we still have a number of Veterans remaining who have submitted applications for travel to Washington DC to see the World War II Memorial which was built in their honor. As a result, we have added one final Honor Flight #12 on September 11, 2010. Those applications received after January 31, 2010 will be accepted on a “space available” basis. Any remaining funds will be transferred to the Veteran’s Museum for the establishment and maintenance of a permanent tribute to the alumni and the accomplishments of Honor Flight Tennessee Valley. Honor Flight Tennessee Valley has now flown 1207 Veterans to see their memorial in Washington, DC.
