Golden Wings Flying Museum
The Golden Wings Flying Museum was an aviation museum located in Blaine, Minnesota.

History

The museum was founded in 1996 by Greg Herrick in a former University of Minnesota hangar.

In 1997, Greg Herrick began a campaign to force the Federal Aviation Administration to make the blueprints of historic aircraft available to the public. This led to a lawsuit in 1999 that eventually resulted in the "Herrick Amendment" being passed as part of the FAA Air Transportation Modernization and Safety Improvement Act in 2012.

The collection was put up for sale in 2015.
