Hangar 25 Air Museum is a restored WWII airplane hangar that sits on its original site. The restoration project began in 1995 and was finished in 1999. Hangar 25 Air Museum opened its doors for the first time on May 11, 1999. It has been the goal of the staff and board of directors to preserve and promote Hangar 25 and the history that it holds. The exhibit area is filled with artifacts and aircrafts that tell the story of the building. We have many visitors who have very special ties to the Big Spring Army Air Force Bombardier School and Webb AFB and these are the air bases that Hangar 25 represents.

Having been through the IRS wringer to secure a 501 (c) (3) rating, I react to questions about flavor and spirit where the Houston County Visitors Center/Museum, Inc. (VC/M) is concerned. We are still fighting to become locally, to complete the transformation of the 1909 railroad depot interior for reuse, to line out what materials and collections we ll accept and how to display them, to secure supporters who will become a Board, to define policies, to find volunteers to keep a schedule, to battle for survival in a location where dopesters and gangs assemble and loot and vandalize down by the railroad tracks , and to fight for funds and refuse to become a reject.
