Visit the CAF Dixie Wing Warbird Museum virtually

By General Aviation News Staff · June 23, 2020 ·

You can take a behind-the-scenes tour of the Commemorative Air Force (CAF) Dixie Wing Warbird Museum at 4 p.m. Wednesday, June 24, 2020, via a special livestream webcast.

The one-hour tour will include the museum’s seven operating aircraft, machine shop and fabricating equipment, and interviews with key Wing members in charge of upcoming programs.

The Dixie Wing’s P-51 “Red Nose.”

The program will open with an overview of the Wing’s history, its facilities and its mission.

Wing members will profile some of the museum’s more notable aircraft, such as the P-51 Mustang, and a panel will discuss community involvement, airshows, aircraft rides, education outreach, and the CAF mission to educate, honor, and inspire through World War II aviation history.

You can register for the program at here.

The “Dauntless” helped turn the tide of World War II at the Battle of Midway on June 4, 1942.

The CAF Dixie Wing, based in Peachtree City, Georgia, was founded in 1987. The Wing, one of the largest units of the Commemorative Air Force, maintains and flies seven World War II aircraft, including a P-51 Mustang, an FG-1D Corsair, and rare types, such as the SBD Dauntless dive bomber and P-63A Kingcobra.
