National Museum of the U.S. Air Force:

The National Museum of the United States Air Force (formerly the United States Air Force Museum) is the official national museum of the United States Air Force and is located at Wright-Patterson AFB, east of Dayton, Ohio. Over 300 aircraft and missiles are on display, most of them indoors. Admission is free.

The museum dates back to 1923 when the Engineering Division atDaytons Mccok Field first collected technical artifacts for preservation. In 1927 it moved to then Wright Field and was housed in a succession of buildings. In 1954 as the Air Force Museum it was housed in its first permanent facility, Building 89 of the former Patterson Field in Fairborn, which had been an engine overhaul hangar, and many of its aircraft were parked outside and exposed to the weather. It remained there until 1971 when the current facility was first opened. Not including its annex on Wright Field proper, the museum has more than tripled in square footage since its inception in 1971.

The museum has several Presidential aircraft, including those used by Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry Truman, and Dwight D. Eisenhower.
The centerpiece of the Presidential aircraft collection is SAM 26000, the first aircraft to be called Air Force One, used by John F. Kennedy through Richard Nixon during his first term, after which served as the backup Presidential aircraft until 1990. That aircraft was most used by Lyndon B. Johnson.

There is a large section of the museum dedicated to pioneers of flight, especially the Wright Brothers , who conducted some of their experiments at nearby Huffman . A replica of the Wrights' 1909 Military Flyer is on display, as well as other Wright brothers artifacts. The building also hosts the National Aviation Hall of , which includes several educational exhibits.

These are all the main features of National museum of the U.S. Air Force.
