Airline History Museum Hits Turbulence with Landlord
Lease Dispute Lands in Court Share this story Published February 17th, 2021 at 11:30 AM Above image credit: A World War II era Navy SNJ trainer is part of the collection at the Airline History Museum.
The Airline History Museum, an attraction at the Wheeler Downtown Airport for 35 years, is fighting to prevent its collection of classic airplanes from being evicted by the private operator of the city-owned facility.
The non-profit’s dispute is with Signature Flight Support, which holds the master lease with the city on several hangars, associated aircraft parking aprons and buildings at Wheeler. The museum has filed a lawsuit in Clay County Circuit Court, and its online petition drive has garnered 6,000 supporters.
