Welcome to the official website of the Pioneer Valley Military & Transportation Museum! We are located at Westfield - Barnes Airport in Westfield, MA. We are a non-profit 501(c)3 educational museum-to-be preserving and presenting all forms of military transportation.

Our vision is to have an “Active” museum! Trucks that can be driven, aircraft that fly and other vehicles milling about! We plan to have much more than static displays like many museums. Our goal is to educate the public in an exciting manner with a hands-on experience for all ages. See a WWII airplane take off and fly, view a working air tower replica from the war and read about history first hand from a letter written almost 100 years ago.

Our site will allow visitors to view aircraft activity at the airport including F15 activity as the 104th Fighter Wing prepares for full operational status as well as to periodically observe vintage war birds and other vintage military and civilian vehicles visiting the museum.

We welcome all new members! A large membership makes up a great institution. Come be part of history in the present and in the future.

• The Westfield International Air Show is coming up August 21 & 22! We are planning to be there in force. Please stop by our booth to see what's up. We will have several items on display and several vehicles open for the kids to get in! For more information click Here!

A message from our president!

Our next big event is the 2010 Hangar Dance Cruise-In & Fly-In! The date for this event is Saturday September 11, 2010 at 6pm. Please don't miss this one! Tickets are available now. Tickets will also be available at the door but we would prefer to sell them before hand to get the number attending as close as possible. Please don't hesitate to call one of the board members for tickets. The outlook for this event is awesome! We are currently soliciting sponsorship for the event in the form of advertising in the event booklet. We have many sponsors who have pledged their support - we could use more! Please contact us if you would like to help out with your sponsorship. This is expected to be a well attended event and a great time. Please help out and take a night out! Join us September 11th from 6-11pm at Westfield-Barnes Airport!
