Flying Leatherneck Aviation Museum, Aviation museum in San Diego, US.

The Flying Leatherneck Aviation Museum exhibits 31 military aircraft, multiple vehicles, historical photographs, and military equipment from different combat periods.

The museum started at Marine Corps Air Station El Toro in 1991, moved to Miramar in 1999, and transported 41 aircraft along highways to its new location.
