How It All Started
Victor Stanzel, along with his brother Joseph had a vision of creating a model airplane manufacturing enterprise, a foundation devoted to giving back to the community in the areas of education and health, and a museum. All brought on by an interest in watching the birds winging their way across the sky, while working the family farmland.
Our Exhibits
Tour the Main Museum where exhibits include static and interactive displays exploring the Stanzels' love of flight. Next door, enter the Factory Wing and learn about the development and manufacturing of model aircraft during the modern mid-century, the peak period of Stanzel production and a dramatic era of aviation and rocket technology evolution. Then cross the museum complex grounds to the Stanzel family homestead where Grandma and Grandpa Stanzel kept a tidy, turn-of-the-century home. The restored farmhouse is complete with late-1800’s furnishings.
