Arizona Aviation Historical Group

Custom design & buildNext.jsStatic, no CMSGSAP + Framer MotionContent in one file

A volunteer group keeping Arizona's aviation history alive, on a website that finally matches the mission. We retired the old Wix site and built the record a permanent home, from their own photographs down to the last date.

The AAHG preserves Arizona's aviation story: the RAF cadets who trained at Falcon Field, the aircraft their volunteers restore, the school programs that pass it on. The site's job is to make that record feel worth joining, and to route every kind of support — donations, event seats, program enquiries — to the right door.

We designed it from their own photo archive and built it by hand on Next.js. Every page is statically prerendered: no CMS to break, no database to patch, no platform subscription to renew. The Arizona-shaped hero mask, the polaroid mats, the numbered project ledger — all custom.

It runs the way a nonprofit needs it to. Content lives in one file, the featured fundraiser switches in one line, and the whole thing deploys in a push. Project Tweet takes donations through PayPal; everything else lands in the inbox they already check.
