Upcoming Events at Planes of Fame
"Wheels, Tracks, and Wings" and Flights in a B-17, B-25, and P-51!

"Wheels, Tracks, and Wings" is Back and Bigger Than Ever!

Two Day Event – May 6th and May 7th, 2023

Featuring Multiple "Flying Demos," Military Vehicles, Historical Reenactors, Presentations and a Special Performance by the Museum's Sherman M4 Tank!

We're pulling together a unique event that we hope becomes a tradition at the Museum.  On May 6th and May 7th we've invited scores of military vehicles - jeeps, trucks, cars, and tracked vehicles along with dozens of historical reenactors to present "Wheels, Tracks, and Wings."

There will be plenty of action on the ground and in the air as we're putting on three Flying Demos on both days!  Guests to this event will see the Museum's North American B-25 "Mitchell" medium bomber in one Flying Demo and our Vought F4U "Corsair" in another and our Curtiss P-40 "Warhawk" in a third Flying Demo.  

Plus, Museum Members will have shots at winning one of three flights in the Vultee BT-13B.  

"Hangar Talk" will be performed both days and we'll have several other demonstrations and learning opportunities throughout the campus.  The highlight will be a unique demonstration of the Museum's Sherman M4 Tank!

We've got great food and beverage lined up (Beer provided by Hangar 24 Brewery) and there will be lots of fun activities for our younger visitors.

Regular Ticket prices are $25 for Adults (Kids under 11 are Free) but now until April 30, 2023, you can receive special discounted tickets.  To purchase yours, click the RED BOX below:
