Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome, Aviation museum and airport for antique aircraft in Red Hook, United States.

Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome houses one of the largest collections of airworthy vintage aircraft from the pioneer era through World War I and the Golden Age of Aviation.

Founded by aviation enthusiast Cole Palen in 1958 and officially incorporated as a museum in 1966, the aerodrome began hosting public air shows in 1960.

The museum serves as a gathering place for vintage aircraft clubs and aviation enthusiasts while promoting historical literacy through hands-on experiences and pilot-led demonstrations.

Visitors can enjoy biplane rides on aircraft dating back to 1929 and attend seasonal events from mid-June to mid-October including flight demonstrations and World War I reenactments.

The facility maintains multiple aircraft in flying condition for live demonstrations, including a 1909 Bleriot XI considered one of the world's oldest airworthy planes.
