Tillamook Air Museum

[1] The six-blimp hangar was built by the United States Navy in 1942 during World War II for Naval Air Station Tillamook.[2][3] Between April 2013 and September 2014, the museum moved the part of its collection owned by Jack Erickson from Tillamook to Madras, Oregon.[4][failed verification] In November 2014, the owners of Hangar B, the Port of Tillamook Bay, announced that they would continue operation of the Tillamook Air Museum with the remaining collection.[7] In 2021, the museum received a B-52 cockpit on loan from Scroggins Aviation Mockup & Effects.[8] The Museum also features an exhibit hall with a large collection of rare historical wartime and aviation themed artifacts including pieces of the great German airship, the LZ-129 Hindenburg, a World War II Luftwaffe flight jacket and a WWII Japanese Army Winter flight suit.
