Bismarck Air Museum

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Bismarck Air Museum was a failed effort to preserve the large municipal hangar, known as Hangar #5, at the Bismarck Municipal Airport in Bismarck, North Dakota and redevelop it into a museum.[1] In the 1930s and 1940s a terminal building, a large hangar and the runways were constructed as a part of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) airport development project. Hangar #5 was the last remaining evidence of this effort and it was the goal of the Bismarck Air Museum Foundation to preserve this structure and create an aviation venue for Central and Western North Dakota.[2]
