The Aerospace Museum of California has been a premiere showcase for aviation science and history since 2005. Located at McClellan Park on the northern side of Sacramento, California, the venue evolved from the original McClellan Aviation Museum which started in 1986 as a display of the mission and the aircraft of McClellan Air Force Base. The Air Force decommissioned the base in 2001, but the story and spirit of the service men and women who served there lives on. "Gone, but not forgotten."
