About Pima Air & Space Museum

The Pima Air & Space Museum is located in southeastern Tucson, Arizona, right at the southern end of the runway at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base. Spread across a sprawling site of roughly 320,000 square meters (about 80 acres), the museum displays around 300 aircraft, most of them military in origin. The collection is divided among several hangars and the large outdoor grounds, and it includes some of the last surviving examples of their types, as well as a few one-of-a-kind aircraft. A particular highlight is SOFIA, the airborne stratospheric observatory, which has been stationed here since 2022. Visitors can also take guided tours of the adjacent AMARG site, where thousands of additional aircraft are in storage.
