Aviation Museum of Santa Paula
Sunday, January 4, 2009 at 09:11PM 
The Aviation Museum of Santa Paula is open the first Sunday of each month, with a "Chain of Hangars" open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Closed if there is rain. FREE (but donations are appreciated).
Hangar Number One is the first in the museum's chain of hangars. It tells the story of the founding of Santa Paula Airport in 1930. Each of the privately owned hangars houses a variety of vintage aircraft and privately owned collections of memorabilia, from antique radios to racecars. Several other aircraft owners put their antique aircraft on display and many vintage aircraft also fly in each month.
A Museum Tram is available to save you some steps between hangars. The Experimental Aircraft Association Chapter 723 offers free airplane rides to kids ages 7-17. The Museum's Gift Hangar, located inside CP Aviation, offers a variety of toys and apparel for airplane buffs of all ages.
