Golden Age Flight Museum

Golden Age Flight Museum Preserving the legacy and educational value of vintage engineering and design. We are an approved California 501c3 Charitable Organization.

The "Golden Age" of aviation was the quickest era of development between the 1920's into the 1950's. Golden Age Flight Museum seeks to acquire flyable aircraft to demonstrate to the public and excellent examples of artifacts with educational value from this era. The Golden Age Flight Museum is currently looking for a permanent location to base it's activities. Please contact us if you have hangar

space that may be rented or donated to the museum for use. All donations are tax deductible. We already have a small, yet very diverse collection of items and aircraft to display. With a little help it is possible to greatly expand the operation.

Progress on the Rigid Midget vintage one off racing sailplane. Irv Culver designed the Rigid Midget in 1941, but due to the Second World War no prototype was constructed until 1947. The Midget was completed in time for Ray Parker to fly the aircraft in the 1947 US Nationals, held at Wichita Falls, Texas, in which he finished third. Culver is credited in giving the very secret Lockheed Advanced Development Projects division the name “Skunk Works” during WW2.
