    The Fargo Air Museum is an aviation related museum in Fargo, North Dakota. It is located at Hector International Airport in the northern part of the city. The museum includes many historic aircraft of which 90% are in flying condition.

    History[edit]

    The inside of the Fargo Air Museum, 2008

    The museum broke ground on a Beck-Odegaard Wing in August 2013.[1][2] In 2016, the museum acquired a 1944 tractor that served as an aircraft tug at Naval Air Station Atlantic City during World War II.[3]

    The museum announced a partnership with North Dakota State University Archives in April 2022 to help preserve the museum's archives.[4]

    The museum will be opening a new exhibit about the early years of the North Dakota Air National Guard in January 2024.[5]
