The Oakland Aviation Museum provides a vital resource to the San Francisco Bay area inspiring interest in the rich aviation history of Oakland and the Bay Area, fostering growth in aviation education and awareness, and promoting community for local groups.
The museum’s restored-hangar home, and surrounding ramp area, now house more than 30 vintage and modern airplanes -- both civilian and military -- and other displays that highlight noted aviators and innovators. Display areas include exhibits honoring Pioneers in Aviation here at the Oakland Airport, Women in Aviation, Naval Aviation in the 20th Century, the commercial airlines that were headquartered at the Oakland Airport, The Tuskegee Airmen, and the 8th Air Force. All displays have been gifted or are on loan by individuals interested in preserving aviation history for the education of future generations. Members and volunteers who share a common interest in aviation history maintain the exhibits.
