We recently discovered some amazing history on the latest addition to the museum, this 1930 Waco RNF. Wing walking over the Grand Canyon? Absolutely! Stay tuned for our next feature video in the coming weeks. Donate today to our year-end fundraising campaign and help the Kelch Aviation Museum start 2022

Welcome to Michael John, our newest volunteer docent! A former pilot, Michael John has been “hanging around airports whether I’m supposed to be there or not” since he was a kid. We’re delighted he’s hanging around the museum now, sharing his knowledge and enthusiasm for aviation history. Stop by some

Aviation is for all ages! We’ve got fun free activities and toys available every day in our kids area. Encouraging young people to explore aviation is a big part of the museum’s mission. Support youth in aviation today and donate – every dollar makes a difference! kelchmuseum.org/contribute
