The American Airpower Museum will hold its annual Winter Hangar Pancake Breakfast on Sunday, Dec. 12, 2021, from 9:30 until 11:30 a.m.

Come and participate in a fun community event for the entire family. Hangar 3 will be decked out with Christmas-themed decorations plus there will be photo opportunities with Santa all day!

Parents and children will enjoy hot pancakes with butter, maple syrup, sausages and beverages. The AAM Holiday Tram will also take adults and kids for rides around the Hangar’s ramp, weather permitting.

Breakfast with Santa takes place in AAM’s historic Hangar 3, once part of Republic Aviation. After breakfast, your family can discover the history of military aviation and explore dozens of exhibits including five of America’s most famous WWII fighting aircraft, the North American B-25 Mitchell Bomber and P-51 Mustang, the Curtiss P-40 Warhawk (Flying Tiger), Grumman’s TBM Avenger Bomber and the Douglas C-47 Skytrain, plus Cold War-era jets by Republic Aviation like the F-105 Thunderchief and A-10 Thunderbolt, also known as the Warthog, the “Flying Gun” and the Tank Buster! Join our breakfast and help support the American Airpower Museum preserve American Aviation History!
