About Air & Military Museum of the Ozarks

This non-profit museum began in 1989 with a single display case and has since grown to hold more than 5,000 military history items. It restores and preserves vintage military equipment, hosts vintage aircraft shows at the Springfield/Branson National Airport, and runs an education program that teaches history and science to young students. Visitors can explore the collection, and volunteers are welcome to help with tours, events, and behind-the-scenes work.
