Pan American Aviation Day is honored by the president of the United States. Moreover, this day is used by the president to make an annual proclamation summoning all US government officials, chief executive offices, and citizens to celebrate Pan American Aviation Day. The day aims to spark people's interest in aviation in American countries.
Pan American Aviation Day came into existence on December 17, 1940. On this day, it was affirmed that the president would annually issue a manifesto and invite government officials and citizens to join in so that the aforementioned goals of the day may be accomplished.
This US day was the result of a joint resolution that was issued in 1940 on October 10. President Franklin Roosevelt announced Proclamation 2446, where he addressed the recent civil aviation developments and perks to the hemisphere and stamped December 17 as Pan American Aviation Day for that year as well as for every consecutive year.
Pan American Aviation Day was made official by the United States Congress on October 10, 1940. This day is hosted by the president, and he encourages the government, governors, and citizens to celebrate Pan American Aviation Day.
