Small collection of aircraft in a VAST wooden hanger. Worth the trip just to see the building built in record time during WWII

As an Army Officer and frequent military museum visitor, I love this out-of-the way treat. Situated next to the Tillamook Naval Station, this museum is a delight. They keep the military aircraft in pristine condition and regularly take the crafts out to fly. There are ongoing projects within the museum and lots of interesting sideline points of interest for everyone.... More

Last Friday on my drive up hwy 101, I stopped at the Tillamook air museum just outside of Tillamook, Oregon. Now I always wanted to go here and check this place out, because my Grandpa had always told me stories that he worked in one of the mills that was housed in one of the hangers back in 50's or...

This place is a must for aircraft enthusiasts and history buffs. Lots of airplanes to see in the historic airship hanger. The engines display is fantastic and so is the big gift shop.

You can not but marvel at the size of the building as you approach. This museum is one of the buildings that was used to hold the airships durning the Second World War. After the war the buildings were used for many things until a group of people saved the only one left. The airships are long gone but when... More

Huge blimp hanger converted into a museum. All working aircraft, with oil on the ground and real ongoing maintenance of the aircraft. All the historical displays are wonderful as well as all the accompanying narratives. Old 'guppy' aircraft outside.
