The Mid Atlantic Air Museum was
organized to ensure the professional stewardship of a collection
that
reflects the history of aviation and to enhance the public's appreciation and
understanding of
that
history. The Museum's collection emphasizes the Mid-Atlantic region's
unique contribution to
flight,
but is broad enough to chronicle a general history of aviation, including
military aviation.
The Museum's collections are accounted and cared for according to established
museum practices.
Historically accurate aircraft restoration and limited demonstration flying are
special missions undertaken
by the Museum. Interpretation of the collection is broad, with artifacts
being exhibited in a context that
reflects
not only the history of the object itself, but also the evolution of technology
and the cultural
environment in which it was used.
Public programs encourage participation by a diverse audience through
imaginative,
entertaining, as well as educational exhibits, lectures, demonstrations, and
special
events. The Museum is proud of its role as a specialty history museum
serving the Mid-Atlantic region and the nation.
