Located in an original 1941 Army Air Corps Hangar in Chico Municipal Airport, the Chico Air Museum a great way to learn about the incredible Aviation History in the Northern Sacramento Valley. Dating back to 1911 with the incredible Thaddeus Kerns, the history spans early airliners, development of air tankers, military flight training, record setting high altitude balloon research and even a Titan I atomic missile base.
The Chico Air Museum collects, preserves, documents and displays aircraft, and aviation and space artifacts. The museum's primary purpose is to educate and inspire people of all ages about aviation and the history of flight.
