Museu Aeroespacial, Aviation museum in Realengo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
The Museu Aeroespacial exhibits a collection of aircraft, engines, documents, and photographs spanning the development of Brazilian aviation throughout multiple decades.
The museum opened in 1976 at Afonsos Air Force Base, following a 1943 proposal by Dr. Salgado Filho and a 1973 presidential decree establishing its foundation.
The facility preserves Brazil's aeronautical heritage through displays of military and civilian aircraft, representing technological advancements and national achievements in aviation.
