The open-air museum of flight equipment began to be created at the airfield of the Barnaul Aviation Sports Club (BASK) in 2009 by the graduates of the Barnaul Higher Military Aviation School and sponsors who are not indifferent to the history of aviation. For several years, the collection of the museum has been replenished with 11 copies of aircraft, two helicopters and a TU-154 cockpit. The equipment was bought and delivered from different cities of Russia and the former USSR, literally saving it from disposal.
The airplanes received by the airfield are restored by the employees of the aviation club on their own, supported by their own funds and donations from benefactors.
The Aviation Museum is open on weekends, on other days it accepts visitors by appointment.
