"The museum was built in 1982-83 by Paul Poberenzy and a small group of experimental aviators who wanted to display their hand-made planes. It is the only Experimental Aircraft Association museum in East Central Wisconsin. The museum's collection displays over one hundred and fifty planes.[1] The AirVenture Museum is a key tourist attraction in Oshkosh and hosts the EAA AirVenture Oshkosh event in the summer months."
