American Airpower Heritage Museum, Aviation museum in Dallas, United States.

The American Airpower Heritage Museum is an aviation museum in Dallas that exhibits restored aircraft, military equipment, and historical documents from World War II. The collection includes thousands of artifacts and materials that show both the daily operations and technical side of military aviation during that era.

The collection opened in 1965 in Mercedes, Texas, to house World War II artifacts donated to the Commemorative Air Force, then the Confederate Air Force. It moved with the CAF to Harlingen in 1968, and in 1990 the American Airpower Heritage Museum became a separate non-profit. In 1991 both moved to Midland, where the museum ran as the CAF Air Power Museum; the collection moved to Dallas in 2015.

The museum holds more than 4,900 oral histories recorded from World War II aviation veterans. Visitors can listen to these first-hand accounts, which document what flying and combat meant to the people who lived through them.

The museum is located at Dallas Executive Airport and welcomes visitors throughout the year with guided tours and educational programs available. Plan to spend several hours to see the exhibits and take advantage of any interactive experiences offered.

The museum holds the world's largest collection of original nose art panels from World War II bombers, a tradition that airplane crews have practiced for generations. These colorful and often humorous designs reveal much about the personality and spirit of the pilots and crew who flew these aircraft.
