Mid America Flight Museum

The Mid America Flight Museum is an aviation museum located at the Mount Pleasant Regional Airport in Mount Pleasant, Texas.

History

Scott Glover, the founder of Mid America Pet Food, began collecting airplanes in 1996. After 17 years, he established the museum in 2013.

The museum worked with Dynamic Aviation to restore the Lockheed Constellation Columbine II to flight in 2015.

The museum purchased the B-17 Thunderbird from the Lone Star Flight Museum in 2020. It was ferried to the Erickson Aircraft Collection in Madras, Oregon for an inspection shortly thereafter.

Facilities

The museum has two locations: Mid America South, the main museum, at the Mount Pleasant Regional Airport in Mount Pleasant, Texas and Mid America North, a restoration shop, at Grimes Field in Urbana, Ohio.
