About Wings Over Miami Air Museum

The Wings Over Miami Air Museum is an aviation museum at Miami Executive Airport in Miami-Dade County, Florida. It focuses on historic and vintage aircraft and aircraft preservation.

The museum displays a collection of restored and static historic aircraft and houses active restoration work; some airframes are maintained in flying condition and are shown at special flying days and events. Exhibits typically include cockpits, engines, and aviation artifacts rather than large gallery installations.

Established by aviation enthusiasts and volunteer staff to preserve and operate historic aircraft, the museum has grown through donations and restoration projects and functions as both a display museum and a working restoration facility. It has hosted public events and fly-ins tied to the Miami area general aviation community.

Situated at Miami Executive Airport (Tamiami) southwest of central Miami, the museum sits roughly 18 km southwest of downtown Miami and is accessed from airport service roads and nearby local streets.

  • Visitor tip: Located on the field at Miami Executive Airport, the museum routinely stages flying days and participates in local air shows when airworthy aircraft are available.
