Hickory Aviation Museum is an aviation museum at the Hickory Regional Airport in Hickory, North Carolina. It features a museum located in the former airport terminal with artifacts, a hangar with aircraft and outdoor exhibits of aircraft on the former airport ramp.[1]
History
The museum originated from the Sabre Society, which was formed in 1991 to restore a North American FJ-3 Fury on display at a ballpark in Taylorsville, North Carolina. Co-founded by Kyle and Kregg Kirby, it opened to the public on 19 May 2007.[1]Шаблон:Failed verification[2]Шаблон:Failed verification
In 2021, the museum announced it would receive an F4F on loan from the National Naval Aviation Museum.[3]
In 2022, plans were announced for a new building located at Hickory Regional Airport. In addition to housing the museum's aircraft, it will also serve as a training facility for the Catawba Valley Community College.[4] The new facility will cost a total of $22 Million, with $15 Million appropriated from the state budget and the remaining $7 Million from museum fundraising. Stipulations of the plan include relinquishing the spot the museum has within the commercial terminal should commercial operations return to Hickory Regional Airport.[4] The museum broke ground on the new building on 26 October 2023.[5][6]
