Our Hidden Collection


Castle Air Museum's aircraft that we are unable to display outdoors (as the fabric covering does not hold up  in the San Joaquin Valley weather) are housed indoors.

The Museum Foundation is working to raise funds for a suitable building to display these and other items that we do not presently have indoor space to display.
