Santa Paula Airport was originally established in 1927 when a local rancher purchased an airplane and based it at the small dirt airstrip on his ranch. Today Santa Paula Airport is known as “The Antique Airplane Capital of the World”, and is home to an array of experimental and antique craft. Many famous pilots have landed here, including Charles Lindbergh, Chuck Yeager, Roscoe Turner, and Pancho Barnes. The first Sunday of each month is open to the public.

On the first Sunday of every month, the museum is open to the public from 10am until 3pm. There are several hangars open and ready to explore. Hangar #1 is the first in our chain of hangars. It tells the story of the founding of Santa Paula Airport in 1930, and that's just the beginning. Each of these privately owned hangars houses vintage aircraft, memorabilia, antique radios, and racecars. Many vintage aircraft also fly in each month, while antique cars grace the taxiway.
