Aviation Museum of Kentucky

The Aviation Museum of Kentucky occupies a working hangar at Blue Grass Airport and displays military jets, civilian aircraft, flight simulators, and scale models in one large exhibition space. The place shows how people have flown and worked with planes through different periods.

People interested in flight history started the museum and it opened to the public in 1995. The collection traces how flying developed in America over many decades.

The place celebrates how aviation shaped the region and its people. You can see how flying became part of Kentucky's identity through the objects and stories displayed here.

The place welcomes visitors with step-free access and staff can help people who need mobility support. You can walk around on your own or join a guide who explains the objects and their stories.

The collection holds a jet fighter that belonged to the Blue Angels, the famous aerobatic team of the US Navy. A rare Crosley Moonbeam biplane is also displayed here, showing early civilian aviation.
