The Chico Air Museum is a museum dedicated to aviation, aircraft, and space artifacts. Located at the Chico Municipal Airport, the Chico Air Museum was established to collect, maintain, and exhibit the history of aviation, aircraft, and space artifacts and educate visitors on the importance of the industry.

The museum houses a variety of aircraft, artifacts and aviation-related exhibits in a well-maintained World War II-era hangar that was once part of the Chico Army Airfield and located next to the Chico Air Attack Base.

The museum also features an outside static display area, an extensive collection of scale models of airplanes, and an extensive aviation research library. The Chico Air Museum is open from Thursday through Sunday.
