The Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum in McMinnville was founded by Airforce Lieutenant and Oregon Native Michael King Smith.

The museum serves to preserve the history of air and space flight, as well as to educate the public.

Exhibits include a collection of WWII aircraft, an SR-71 Blackbird, a Titan missile, and a B-17 bomber.

Also on display is the cargo hold of the original Spruce Goose, built by industrialist and aviator Howard Hughes.

Guests can learn about helicopters, airplanes, and rockets, and can also tour the Oregon Aviation Hall of Honor, which honors outstanding men and women aviators from the state.
