CAF Rocky Mountain Wing Museum, Aviation museum in Grand Junction, Colorado

The CAF Rocky Mountain Wing Museum at Grand Junction Regional Airport displays military aircraft and equipment from wartime periods. The collection includes historical planes and personal items that document aviation history and military service.

The museum was founded in 1981 as part of a national organization dedicated to preserving American military aviation. Its collection reflects how aircraft evolved and were used during wartime conflicts.

The museum keeps two flying military planes from wartime eras that visitors can sometimes watch being maintained or prepared for flights. These aircraft represent periods when aviation was developing and changing rapidly for defense purposes.

The museum is located at the airport and easy to reach. Visitors can take guided tours, learn about the aircraft, and arrange flights in historical planes if interested.

One of the aircraft at the museum is registered in a national historic places list because of its wartime service and importance. This particular plane remains one of few examples still able to fly today.
