Welcome to the National Museum of Commercial Aviation!

We're Moving Next Door

We will be closed for our move to our new space which is double the current one, and reopening in July. Our new hours will be Wednesday – Saturday, 10am to 4pm. Our temporary museum location is right off of I-75 just south of Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. We have a great collection of memorabilia, displays, archives and things to purchase. If you love aviation, then you'll love what we have already done. Click here for Hours and Directions.

These photos are from the remodel and move-in to the new space. Thank you to all our faithful volunteers who have been painting, stripping, staining, sawing, lifting, measuring, carrying, filing, organizing and most importantly sharing! We look forward to welcoming everyone to our new temporary home in August.

The Museum

Come visit us and follow the progress of the country's newest aviation experience as we progress toward our future permanent location just south of Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, the world's busiest passenger airport on I-75.

The museum will be comprised of several buildings, built in phases over a number of years. The main building will be a 40,000 square-foot replica of a 1940's art-deco style terminal, complete with jet-ways and full-size commercial airliners outside. An adjacent hangar facility will contain aircraft and work areas.

The Exhibits

Inside the terminal building, you will find interactive exhibits on: how airports work; how airplanes fly; how food, luggage and cargo is transported; how airplanes and parts are built; how air traffic control works; why commercial airlines exist and how they operate; and much more.

The People

Join aviation legends, current and retired airline employees and aviation enthusiasts all over the world and consider becoming a member. Your support of the museum effort will ensure that generations to come will be able to witness first hand the grandeur that is commercial aviation.
