The Airpower Museum
The APM has over 20,000 square feet of display and storage space plus tons of many spare engine and aircraft parts, both on display and being made available to AAA members to assist in their restoration.
The Airpower Museum features a large collection of aircraft, many of which are flown regularly.
At each National AAA/APM Fly-In, the APM holds a Fly-Market, allowing members to buy, sell and trade parts for their airplanes and engines.
Revitalization Campaign
A new campaign is kicking off to revitalize the Air Power Museum in Blakesburg, Iowa. Plans for the Museum include both a program for renovation and updating the infrastructure, as well as the creation of an endowment to sustain the Museum into the future.
The APM has two missions that must be protected and nurtured:
- The Museum exists to preserve and educate.
- The APM, and Antique Airfield, is the site for a fly-in that means so much to antique airplane owners because it is a place where the "grass roots" of antique flying can still be experienced.
Read more about the campaign announcement, and the nomination of a Steering Committee to help guide the revitalization and the missions of the APM.
