History
Scott Glover, the founder of Mid America Pet Food, began collecting airplanes in 1996. After 17 years, he established the museum in 2013.[1][2][3]
The museum worked with Dynamic Aviation to restore the Lockheed Constellation Columbine II to flight in 2015.[4]
The museum purchased the B-17 Thunderbird from the Lone Star Flight Museum in 2020.[5] It was ferried to the Erickson Aircraft Collection in Madras, Oregon for an inspection shortly thereafter.[6]
