Featured Aircraft
Grumman F4F Wildcat
The Grumman F4F Wildcat was a rugged and reliable carrier-based fighter aircraft used by the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps during World War II. Though slower and less maneuverable than its main adversary, the Japanese Zero, the Wildcat's superior durability, firepower, and innovative tactics like the "Thach Weave" helped American pilots hold their own in critical battles like Midway and Guadalcanal.

Ongoing Projects
The Gonzalez Flyer/Front Entrance Restoration is underway. Around two years ago, we raised the original 1912 Gonzalez Flyer into the sky. We are almost finished with this project! As of 2023, our museum store has been open and we plan to complete this extensive project by 2026. None of this could be done without the help of our devoted volunteers. Join us today!
