Tillamook Air Museum

Tillamook Air Museum is an aviation museum located south of Tillamook, Oregon at Tillamook Airport. The museum is housed in a former military blimp hangar, called "Hangar B", which is the largest clear-span wooden structure in the world. Tillamook Air Museum has been described as "one of the country's top private World War II aircraft collections".

Constructed by the US Navy in 1942 during World War II for Naval Air Station Tillamook, the hangar building housing the aircraft is 1072 ft long and 296 ft wide, giving it over 6 acre of area. It stands at 192 ft tall. The doors weigh 30 tons each and are 120 ft tall. Hangar "B" is one of two that were built on the site originally, Hangar "A" was destroyed by fire in August,1992.

A portion of the blimp hangar is now leased by the Hillsboro, Oregon-based American Blimp Corporation which is the largest manufacturer of blimps in the United States.

In April 2013, the museum announced that it was planning to move from Tillamook to Madras, Oregon, sometime before the end of its lease of the blimp hangar, which extends to January 2016.
