The Port of Tillamook Bay in Oregon is preparing to begin work to remove the storm-damaged section of roofing on historic Hangar B, which houses the Tillamook Air Museum.

Work is anticipated to begin in early August 2026, pending final coordination with outside partners, and is expected to take approximately 30 days to complete, according to a post on the museum’s Facebook page.

This project represents the first on-site phase of work following the December 2025 windstorm that peeled back approximately 200 feet of the roof, according to museum officials.

The work will focus on the safe removal and disposal of this damaged section of roofing, reducing the immediate safety concern while supporting future phases of work on Hangar B.

“Safety remains the Port’s highest priority, and this project reflects the Port’s continued commitment to responsibly caring for Tillamook County’s most recognizable historic landmarks,” museum officials said. “While this is only the first phase of work, it represents meaningful progress in improving safety and addressing the damage to the hangar.”
