Arkansas Air & Military Museum

Arkansas Air & Military Museum, Aviation museum at Drake Field, United States.

The Arkansas Air & Military Museum occupies a 1940s wooden hangar at Drake Field in Fayetteville, listed on the Arkansas Register of Historic Places. Its aircraft span the 1920s to the modern era, including Golden Age racing planes and military types from World War I, World War II and Vietnam. A second hangar holds more aircraft and vehicles, and a third building displays military aircraft, small arms and memorabilia.

The wooden hangar was built in the 1940s and served as a training facility for United States pilots during World War II. The building is one of the few structures from that era still standing today.

The collection tells the story of aviation through Arkansas eyes, showing planes that were built or flown by people from the state. You can see how local aviators and engineers shaped the history of flight.

The hangar provides a covered space where you can view aircraft regardless of weather conditions. Wear comfortable shoes since you will walk around quite a bit to see the various displays.

The collection includes the Ercoupe 415C that Sam Walton, founder of Walmart, owned as his first aircraft, and a Learjet 23 described as the world's only aerobatic Lear Jet, flown by Bobby Younkin. A Travel Air Model R "Mystery Ship" replica is also on display.
