The First Flight Society of Kitty Hawk, NC is a 501(c)3 organization that celebrates aviation history and achievement through programs, activities, education, and the arts. Without the First Flight Society (FFS), they note that there would not be a Wright Brothers National Memorial in Kill Devil Hills, NC.

The Kill Devil Hills Memorial Association, later renamed the First Flight Society, began as a group of local businessmen who successfully petitioned the US Congress to fund and build a monument to the Wright Brothers' 1903 achievement.

Today the FFS is a partner with the National Park Service at the Wright Brothers National Memorial.
