Museo del Aire

Museo del Aire, Military aviation museum in Havana, Cuba.

Museo del Aire is a military aviation museum in Havana that houses a collection of aircraft, helicopters, uniforms, medals, and engines spanning different periods. The exhibits show how Cuban aeronautical technology developed through both combat and transport planes from various eras.

The Museo del Aire occupied a site in La Lisa, in the south-western suburbs of Havana, where it displayed much of the history of the Cuban Air Force. In August 2010 the museum closed and the whole collection was transferred to San Antonio de los Baños Air Base. The sources give no founding date for the museum.

The museum displayed aircraft from the history of the Cuban Air Force, and its collection was moved in August 2010 to San Antonio de los Baños Air Base. The yellow single-engine plane in the photograph, with its black nose and high glazed canopy, shows the type of airframe visitors could examine up close.

The museum no longer exists as a visitor site: it closed in August 2010 and its whole collection was moved to San Antonio de los Baños Air Base, south of Havana. The former address was Avenida 212, between Avenida 29 and 31, La Coronela, La Lisa, in the south-western suburbs. Anyone planning to see the aircraft should check access to the air base in advance.

The museum closed in August 2010, when the whole collection was moved to San Antonio de los Baños Air Base, so the aircraft are no longer in Havana. The photograph shows one of the planes once displayed: a bright yellow single-engine type with a black upper nose, a high glazed canopy braced by two thin wires, and a single black propeller blade standing upright.
