Pacific Coast Air Museum

The Pacific Coast Air Museum is a collection of aircraft displayed at Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport in Santa Rosa, with planes ranging from old propeller aircraft to modern fighter jets. The machines stand outdoors and cover different eras of aviation development.

The museum was founded in 1989 when aviation enthusiasts started collecting and displaying aircraft at the airport. The collection grew over time as more planes were acquired and restored for public viewing.

The collection reflects how aviation shaped modern history and continues to inspire visitors interested in flight technology and exploration. You can see how different aircraft generations show the evolution of engineering and design over time.

Visitors should prepare for outdoor conditions since the aircraft are displayed outside, which can mean heat or wind depending on the season. Comfortable shoes and plenty of time help you explore the collection thoroughly.

The museum offers special events where visitors can climb into aircraft cockpits and explore them up close from the inside. This hands-on access to the machines is often the highlight for many people visiting.
