📍Pasco Aviation Museum ✈️
Last week, the staff of VTC headed out to Pasco to tour the Pasco Aviation Museum @ Bergstrom Aircraft!
It was an incredible morning spent taking in Pasco’s rich aviation history. The memorabilia inside the walls of this museum left us speechless.
Did you know?
✉️📮 The first commercial U.S. Air Mail Flight was out of Pasco?
✈️ The museum is in the original Naval Air Station Pasco Control Tower Building?
💙 United Airlines’ first flight was out of Pasco in 1926?
We’d love to tell you more fun facts about Pasco’s aviation history - but you’ll have to head on down to the museum to experience it for yourself!
The museum will be open to the public April 5, 2025 🙌🏼
