The Hagerstown Aviation Museum is an aviation museum at the Hagerstown Regional Airport in Hagerstown, Maryland. It is focused on the history of the Fairchild Aircraft Corporation.
The idea for an aviation museum in Hagerstown began in 1995 with a group of individuals that included Richard Henson and John Seburn. After a decade of delays, the museum opened to the public in downtown Hagerstown, Maryland on 14 July 2005.[2] The following year, the museum purchased a C-82 at auction from Hawkins and Powers in Greybull, Wyoming.[1][3][4]
The museum purchased a C-123 and trucked it to the airport in 2019.[5][6]
After originally considering building a new hangar, the museum moved to the former Fairchild Aircraft Flight Test Hangar in 2020 and purchased the building three years later.[1][7][8][9]
