About the Dakota Territory Air Museum Hangars
The Dakota Territory Air Museum stands on North Hill in the city of Minot, North Dakota, close to Minot International Airport. Its mission is to be a historical resource on aviation, honoring the men and women, and the machines, that shaped its history, through exhibits and events meant to educate, inspire and entertain visitors of all ages.
Founded in 1986, the museum put up its first building in 1988, with additions in 1990 and 1991. In 2013 it built a new hangar to house the Texas Flying Legends Museum's aircraft. Through a cooperative venture with that museum in Houston, its World War II warbirds were flown from Texas each spring and typically displayed from mid-May through July. When the Houston museum ceased operating in 2019, its aircraft were moved permanently to Minot. An annual sweepstakes giving away a light airplane has run since 1997.
Its facilities include a main information room, outdoor displays and a restoration hangar, plus the Scott Nelson Gallery and three named hangars: the Wright Flyer Hangar, the Oswin H. Elker Hangar and one for the Texas Flying Legends collection. Displays change often, because planes occasionally leave for air shows or other museums.
