Silent Wings Museum is a public institute dedicated to preserving and showcasing the history of the glider program used during World War II. This is done through collecting, interpreting, documenting, and exhibiting information and artifacts so that visitors can enjoy them and learn about them.

The museum’s focal point is a beautifully restored WACO CG-4A glider surrounded by various interactive exhibits. The best way to explore Silent Wings is with a guided 90-minute tour that takes you on a journey through the museum designed to resemble a real WWII war zone. Along the way they will get a chance to look inside a full-sized glider, explore a pilot’s footlocker, and touch a WWII pilot’s uniform.
