American Airpower Heritage Museum

It's been almost 60 years since World War II ended - considered the greatest and most destructive war in history. Americans were ushered into the war after the bombing of Pearl Harbor and proved triumphant freeing people around the world. Located at Commemorative Air Force
Headquarters in Midland, the American Airpower Heritage Museum has frozen that era in history, showcasing the type of aircraft that operated during the war.

As part of the museum tour, visitors will see between 14-20 airplanes on display. Many of the airplanes are part of the CAF's fleet -- some of which are the only flying examples in the world. The airplanes change quarterly, so there are always new and different airplanes for visitors to see. They are so close they can even touch the metal. Discover one of the finest collections of aviation memorabilia throughout the American Airpower Musuem from World War II and relive the memories of those men and women who bravely fought and witnessed the battles.

This significant period in history is also proudly preserved in the aviation museum's new Aviation Art Gallery, which features the world's largest collection of World War II nose art. The nose art panels were cut from the fuselages of World War II aircraft as they were being scrapped after the war.
