Greater Poland, as the cradle of Polish aviation, is a place where dreams of conquering the skies were born. It was here, in the difficult times of the struggle for independence, that the idea of creating a strong and modern aviation that would defend the borders of the reborn Republic of Poland was born. The Greater Poland Uprising played a key role in capturing the airport in Ławica and the airship hall in Winiary, which made it possible to acquire German aircraft and use them in combat.

Poznań became an important center for the training of pilots and the formation of air units. It was here that an air regiment was established, which trained future heroes of the Polish sky. Greater Poland pilots fought with dedication in the Battle of the Bzura, suffering enormous losses. Their sacrifice was not in vain, and the traditions of Greater Poland wings were continued by famous squadrons such as the 302nd Poznań Fighter Squadron and the 305th Bomber Squadron of the Greater Poland Land.
