Navy began construction of 17 wooden hangars to house the K-class blimps being used for anti-submarine coast patrol and convoy es**rt. Two of these hangars were built at the Naval Air Station Tilllamook, commissioned in December 1942 to serve the Oregon-Washington coastal area. Construction of the two hangars was rushed to completion. Hangar "B" was the first one built and was completed in August

of 1943. Hangar "A" which was destroyed in a 1992 fire, was completed in only 27 days. Amazingly, there were no serious injuries or deaths on the whole project. Stationed at NAS Tillamook was Squadron ZP-33 with a complement of eight K-ships. The K-ships were 252 feet long and filled with 425,000 cu. With a range of 2,000 miles and an ability to stay aloft for three days, they were well suited for coast patrol and convoy es**rt. Naval Air Station Tillamook was decommissioned in 1948.

It looks almost like Armageddon.

Standing amid the rubble of the World Trade Center shortly after the towers collapsed, firefighters look out over a hellish landscape. Smoke and dust have nearly blotted out the daylight, casting an eerie darkness over the ruins, in what looks like night rather than a beautiful early September morning. The buildings that had dominated the New York skyline only hours before were gone.

It is difficult to imagine what these firefighters must have been feeling as they stood there. Shock. Exhaustion. Grief. Helplessness in the face of destruction on a scale that no one could have been prepared to comprehend.

And yet, they remained.

On September 11, 343 members of the FDNY lost their lives. They had rushed toward the danger to help others while thousands of people were desperately trying to escape it.

These attacks changed us. They changed the way we saw the world and our sense of security. But amid the unimaginable horror of that day, we also witnessed extraordinary courage, selflessness and sacrifice.

Twenty-five years later, we remember the firefighters who answered the call, those who survived, and the 343 who never returned home.

We will never. EVER, forget!

In the days following September 11, New York City became covered with the faces of the missing.

In subway stations, on walls, storefronts, lampposts and anywhere there was space, families and friends posted photographs of loved ones who had gone to work that morning and never returned home. Each poster carried a name, a photograph, a description and, above all, the hope that someone might have seen them.

For those who were in New York, these walls of faces became an unforgettable part of the days that followed. They were everywhere.

September 11 changed all of our lives. We remember where we were, what we saw, and how the world suddenly felt different. But for thousands of families, September 11 meant something far more personal. It meant the loss of someone who would never come home.

This photograph captures one of the most painful memories of that time: a man standing before a wall of missing-person posters, surrounded by the faces of people whose loved ones desperately wanted them to come home.

Twenty-five years later, those faces remain a powerful reminder that behind every number was a person. Someone who was a mother or father, a son or daughter, a brother or sister, a husband or wife, a friend or coworker. Each had a life and a story of their own.

We remember them. We remember their families. We will never forget!

There are photographs that capture history, and then there are photographs that capture the instant when history changes.

Today’s photograph comes from our friend, photographer Rob Howard, who our Curator had the privilege of interviewing in 2023 about this extraordinary image and his experiences on September 11, 2001.

A professional photographer and storyteller, Rob’s career has taken him to more than 140 countries and all 50 states, photographing people and places around the world for some of the country’s leading publications.

That morning, however, Rob was at home in his apartment at Rector Street and Broadway in Lower Manhattan, only blocks from the World Trade Center. The North Tower had already been struck by American Airlines Flight 11, and smoke poured into the otherwise clear morning sky.

At that point, many people still did not understand what was happening. The first impact was still widely believed to have been a terrible aviation accident.

Then another aircraft appeared over Lower Manhattan.

Rob leaned from his apartment window with his Pentax 6x7 medium-format camera and captured United Airlines Flight 175 only seconds before it struck the South Tower of the World Trade Center at 9:03 a.m.

In the photograph, the aircraft appears almost suspended in time. Ahead stands the South Tower.

Seconds later, United 175 struck the South Tower.

In that instant, any lingering doubt disappeared. America was under attack.

Twenty-five years later, this photograph remains extraordinarily difficult to look at because we know what comes next. Yet Rob’s camera has frozen those final few seconds forever, preserving one of the defining moments of September 11.

A few seconds. A single photograph. A moment after which nothing would ever be quite the same.

Twenty-five years later, some photographs still have the power to stop us in our tracks.

This extraordinary image was taken from an NYPD helicopter by Detective Greg Semendinger of the New York City Police Aviation Unit on the morning of September 11, 2001.

When Semendinger and his partner first received word that an aircraft had struck the North Tower of the World Trade Center, they launched from Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn believing they were responding to an accident. Within minutes, they were circling the burning tower, searching its rooftop for survivors and trying to determine whether a helicopter rescue might be possible.

Then, at 9:03 a.m., United Airlines Flight 175 struck the South Tower.

Everything changed!

Semendinger continued taking photographs as he and other members of the Aviation Unit searched for some way to help. At 9:59 a.m., the South Tower collapsed.

This photograph was taken in the terrible minutes that followed.

The North Tower is still standing, burning above a city disappearing beneath an enormous cloud of dust and debris from the collapse of the South Tower. From the air, the scale of what was happening becomes almost impossible to comprehend. Streets, buildings and entire city blocks are swallowed by the cloud.

Semendinger would soon become concerned that the North Tower was also beginning to fail and radio a warning that people needed to get out. At 10:28 a.m., it too collapsed.

From his helicopter, Semendinger witnessed a tragedy unfolding below him that he desperately wanted to help stop, but could not. Years later, looking at his photographs of the emergency vehicles surrounding the World Trade Center, he reflected on the police officers, firefighters and other responders who had left those vehicles behind and never returned to them.

This photograph gives us a view of September 11 that relatively few people witnessed: from above, looking down upon a city in the midst of an unimaginable catastrophe.

For those of us who remember that morning, photographs like this bring back just how impossible it all seemed as it was happening. For those who were not yet born, they help preserve an understanding of what words alone can never fully convey.

Twenty-five years later, we still look. We still remember. And we still try to comprehend the incomprehensible.

Hey everyone! We wanted to share an update on the roof repairs for Hangar B here at the Tillamook Air Museum.

We are happy to report that things are moving forward!

As many of you know, the Port of Tillamook Bay has contracted with a company to remove the damaged roof flap and complete the necessary asbestos abatement around the opening that was created by the major storm in December of last year.

Following a delay in the contractor's schedule, that work is now scheduled to begin Monday, September 14th and is expected to take approximately two to four weeks to complete.

In the meantime, the Vintage Aviation Museum and Tillamook Air Museum are actively working to get contractors, materials, and plans lined up so that once the roof flap has been removed and the abatement work is complete, we can move as quickly as possible into repairing and closing the hole in the roof.

Our goal is simple: get Hangar B secured and the roof repaired before the winter weather really sets in.

There is still a lot of work ahead, but so far, so good. We are making progress, and we remain fully committed to protecting, preserving, and restoring this incredible historic WW II blimp hangar.

Thank you to everyone who continues to follow along, support the Museum, and share our excitement about the future of Hangar B and the Tillamook Air Museum!

Please stay tuned. We’ll continue sharing updates as the work progresses!

Twenty-five years ago, September 11, 2001 changed all of our lives!

Over the next ten days, as we approach the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, we will share photographs and stories remembering that day and the events that followed.

We begin with this haunting photograph of a Sears saleswoman in Lawrence, Kansas, surrounded by television screens showing the attacks unfolding in New York. For millions of Americans, September 11 was first experienced through a television screen. Across America, millions of people stopped what they were doing and watched in disbelief as our nation came under attack.

Nearly 3,000 people lost their lives that day in the deadliest terrorist attack in American history. Twenty-five years later, the images and experiences of September 11 remain with us.

As we remember those who lost their lives, we would also like to hear from you. Where were you on September 11, 2001? What do you remember seeing? What were you thinking and feeling? Who were you with? We invite you to share your memories and stories in the comments over the next ten days.

Twenty-five years have passed, but we have NOT forgotten!

𝙋𝙝𝙤𝙩𝙤 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙒𝙚𝙚𝙠: 𝙋𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 “𝘼𝙄𝙍 𝙈𝙐𝙎𝙀𝙐𝙈” 𝙇𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙨

Recognize these letters?

This week’s photograph captures the enormous “AIR MUSEUM” lettering on the side of Hangar B while it was still being painted in the early 1990s.

Just how big are they? Each letter stands approximately 100 feet tall and 30 feet wide. It took 500 gallons of paint and two weeks to complete the job.

But there’s another interesting detail hiding in plain sight. The typeface is Helvetica, one of the most recognizable typefaces in the world. Typography researchers have estimated the lettering at an incredible 120,000-point type!

For comparison, the everyday text you read on a computer might be only 10 or 12 point. At 120,000 point, the “AIR MUSEUM” letters are typography on an entirely different scale.

So, could the “AIR MUSEUM” lettering on Hangar B be the world’s largest use of Helvetica?

What do you think?

Seventy-one years ago today, on August 27, 1955, fire broke out at the Tillamook Air Museum’s Historic Hangar B.

At the time, Hangar B was occupied by the Diamond Lumber Company, which operated lumber and plywood manufacturing facilities inside the former World War II blimp hangar. The fire began in residue inside an exhaust duct connected with the plywood operation and soon spread to the hangar’s massive, nearly 12-acre roof.

The fire raced up the curved roof as 24 paid and volunteer firefighters, assisted by Diamond Lumber employees, fought to bring it under control. Approximately 40,000 square feet of roofing, nearly an acre, burned.

Remarkably, Hangar B survived.

During its World War II construction, the structural lumber and roof decking had been pressure treated with fire-retardant metallic salts. Investigators found no significant damage to the structural timbers beyond shallow charring and credited the fire-retardant treatment with helping prevent the loss of the hangar.

The evidence of that day is still here. If you stand inside the Museum beneath the area where the fire burned, you can still see charred portions of the roofing today, a visible reminder of just how fortunate we are that Hangar B was saved.

Seventy-one years later, preserving this remarkable building and the history it holds remains just as important.

With last week's announcement about the partnership between the Tillamook Air Museum and the Vintage Aviation Museum, you may be wondering: Who exactly is VAM?

𝙒𝙚'𝙙 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙙𝙪𝙘𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪!

𝙑𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙜𝙚 𝘼𝙫𝙞𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙈𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙪𝙢: 𝙒𝙝𝙤 𝘼𝙧𝙚 𝙒𝙚?

The Vintage Aviation Museum is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation of warbirds, vintage aircraft, and the history that surrounds them. Our mission, however, has always been about much more than the aircraft themselves.

Every aircraft has a story. Behind these aircraft are the men and women who designed them, built them, flew them, maintained them, and supported the missions they were designed to accomplish. Those people, and their experiences, sacrifices, accomplishments, and memories, are an essential part of the history we are committed to preserving.

For well over a decade, the Vintage Aviation Museum has worked to acquire and preserve aircraft, artifacts, and, perhaps most importantly, the stories and personal histories connected to them. Over the years, we have been fortunate to meet and develop friendships with many of the people who lived this history firsthand.

Preserving history means more than simply placing historic aircraft and exhibits in a museum setting. It means bringing that history to life. We believe some of the most memorable learning happens through interaction, exploration, and experience. That means creating dynamic, experiential exhibits that push boundaries, make you think twice, encourage curiosity, and, just as importantly, allow you to have fun.

𝙊𝙪𝙧 𝙜𝙤𝙖𝙡 𝙞𝙨 𝙨𝙞𝙢𝙥𝙡𝙚: 𝙚𝙙𝙪𝙘𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣.

We want visitors to do more than see history. We want them to connect with it, think about it in new ways, and leave with memories that stay with them long after their visit.

Today, that mission has expanded in a significant way with the Vintage Aviation Museum’s involvement with historic Hangar B at the Tillamook Air Museum, one of the world’s last surviving wooden World War II blimp hangars.

Hangar B represents an extension of everything the Vintage Aviation Museum has been committed to since its inception. It is not simply a building that houses a museum. Hangar B is a museum unto itself, with its own remarkable story and an important place in American aviation and military history.

As we begin this new chapter, the Vintage Aviation Museum looks forward to building on the success of the Tillamook Air Museum and continuing the great work that has already been done. We have tremendous respect for the museum, its history, its collection, and the people who have helped make it what it is today. Our goal is to build on that strong foundation while creating new opportunities to bring aviation and aviation history to life for visitors of all ages.

The Vintage Aviation Museum is ultimately about preserving the past so that it can inspire the future.

We preserve the aircraft.

We preserve the artifacts.

We preserve the buildings.

All the while, we preserve the stories of the people who made aviation what it is today.

And now, through our work in Tillamook and historic Hangar B, we have the opportunity to bring those stories to life on a scale that can reach generations to come.

TILLAMOOK, Oregon- August 20, 2026 — The Port of Tillamook Bay Commissioners have approved a term sheet for the land lease and future sale of Tillamook’s historic World War II-era Hangar B to Vintage Aviation Museum, a Utah-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

With Vintage Aviation Museum set to assume operation of the Museum from the Port of Tillamook Bay and become its future owner and operator, an exciting new chapter is beginning for the Museum. 𝘽𝙪𝙩 𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙞𝙢𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚: 𝙬𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙪𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙗𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙏𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙖𝙢𝙤𝙤𝙠 𝘼𝙞𝙧 𝙈𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙪𝙢.

Our identity is deeply connected to Tillamook, Naval Air Station Tillamook, historic Hangar B, and the people and stories that have shaped this remarkable place for more than eight decades. Preserving and sharing that history will remain at the heart of everything we do.

Work is already beginning behind the scenes as we are preparing to welcome visitors back to the museum. We look forward to sharing a reopening date as plans move forward.

Vintage Aviation Museum plans to relocate most of its aircraft collection to Tillamook, bringing additional historic aircraft to Hangar B and expanding the Museum’s aviation collection. Looking ahead, the vision is to utilize the entire historic blimp hangar for aviation-related exhibits, aircraft displays, preservation, education, and visitor experiences.

The future of historic Hangar B will remain a priority. Following the Museum’s reopening, efforts will continue toward the repair, restoration, and long-term preservation of this extraordinary piece of Oregon and American aviation history so that it can be preserved and enjoyed by visitors for generations to come.

At the Tillamook Air Museum, we have always believed in thinking big, taking chances, and finding new ways to bring aviation history to life. Operating as part of a nonprofit organization will provide greater flexibility to pursue new opportunities, partnerships, funding sources, and projects as the Museum moves forward. Visitors can expect us to keep pursuing ambitious projects exploring new ideas and creating opportunities that keep the Museum moving forward.

Just as importantly, we will continue strengthening our connection with the community we call home. Education and outreach will remain an important part of our mission, including working with local schools and developing partnerships throughout our community.

We want to recognize and thank the Port of Tillamook Bay, which has owned and operated the Tillamook Air Museum for more than a decade. We have enjoyed a strong and supportive relationship with the Port, and the Museum would not be what it is today without their trust, support, and belief in our mission. We are deeply grateful for everything they have done to help us grow and look forward to continuing that relationship into the future.

Our relationship with the Friends of the Tillamook Air Museum (FOTAM) will remain an important part of our future. FOTAM’s volunteers have provided tremendous support to the museum and its mission, and we are incredibly grateful for their dedication and hard work. We look forward to continuing our strong partnership with FOTAM as we move forward together.

For those who would like to be part of this next chapter, contributions to Vintage Aviation Museum can help support exhibit preparation, restoration, and other work associated with preparing the Tillamook Air Museum to once again welcome the public.
