Located at the field of the regional airport serving Reading, Pennsylvania, known as the Carl A. Spaatz field, the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum is both a museum and a facility for the restoration of antique aircraft. Founded by Russ Strine, the museum collects and restores historic planes, airliners, and rare military and civilian aircraft. The museum's fully restored and functional historical aircraft often participate in various airshows and the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum is known for hosting the annual "World War II Weekend Air Show." The visitors can ride in the museum's vintage North American SNJ, which is the Navy version of the AT-6 "Texan" used as a military trainer during World War II, or in a Stearman biplane. The rides are available every second Saturday, from May through October.
