MUSEUM VISITORS: Pick up a Self-Guided Museum Tour Guide sheet in the lobby. Feel free to ask questions (if you don’t see us, we may be working in the shop or outside). If the hangar entry doors are closed we will be glad to open them so you can also walk through the two community hangars. Although the DC-3 can get hot on sunny summer days, we will open the airstair door for you to go inside when it’s temperate. The An-2 biplane is also available to tour (Turn handle & push door to open). Pick up Outside Tour sheets in lobby: Hangar Tour (list of aircraft) & Outside Displays (interesting facts).

2025 PAST EVENTS:
– Chili Fest Fly-In May 10th: Perfect Weather BUT a strong Direct Crosswind deterred many planes but not drive-ins (35 aircraft flew in – including Jeff Chorman’s T-28 & John Machamer’s 1930 Davis D-1K).
– Antique Fly-In June 21st: Nearly perfect weather (sunny, hot, calm winds), 83 guest planes. Pilatus PC-12 (new record for largest plane to land at Massey). Great “Vibe”, maybe our happiest fly-in based on spectator (& pilot) enjoyment. Visit our Facebook page & Flickr photo album (See Links above)
