Museums

The Prairie Aviation Museum has displays, static aircraft, education programs, air shows, group tours, and special aviation events.

As an aviation and space museum, they honor military and civilian aviation. While visitors are quick to notice the displays, they tell the stories of the men and women who have contributed to the creation, development, expansion, and promise of aviation and space exploration. They are a family friendly museum, where visitors of all ages can touch the displays and static aircraft and visit with members who flew and maintained the aircraft in the Air Park.
