Museum Recommended by the FAI

The Academy of Model Aeronautics’ National Model Aviation Museum was approved as a Fédération Aéronautique Internationale Recommended Museum during the 106th FAI General Conference in Antalya, Turkey last year. The museum is one of three museums that have been recognized by the FAI in the United States. 

The FAI Recommended Museum Program exists to recognize worthy and notable museum collections of an aeronautical nature, which are used to further the education of the public— particularly children— in the history and practice of air sports, aeronautics and astronautics, and/or commercial or military aviation. Museums are nominated by FAI Member National Air Sport Control organizations.
