Whakakiia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I whakamoemititia te kiriata mo tōna pūkenga hangarau me tōna tūturu i te tukunga, ka noho koia te paerewa e whangangahia ai ngā kiriata rererangi ā muri ake nei, nā te mea ko ōna raupapa whawhai-rangi tūturu. I riro i a ia te Academy Award tuatahi mō te Pikitia Pai rawa atu i te tau tuatahi o te Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences
i te tau 1929, ko te kiriata puku anake i pera. I riro hoki i a ia te Academy Award mo nga Paanga Hangarau Pai (Roy Pomeroy). Ko "Wings" tētahi o ngā pikitia tuatahi i tukuna whānuitia hei whakaatu i te tahanga. I te tau 1997, i tohua a "Wings" hei tiaki i te United States National Film Registry na te Whare Pukapuka o te Kaunihera hei "ahurea, hitori, he ataahua ranei", ana ka tukuna ano te kiriata ki nga whare pikitia o Cinemark kia rite ki te 85th Anniversary mo te rerenga iti i te Mei 2012. I tukuna ano te kiriata mo tana huritau 90 i te tau 2017. I tiakina e te Academy Film Archive "Wings" i te tau 2002.
