David,
Sorry I took so long getting back to you. I was mistaken. I assumed that one + one = two. In this case that was not the case.

About 2012 the Oregonian had a series of articles that the hangar which houses the Tillamook Air Museum was in a state of disrepair and would need millions of dollars, something the museum doesn't have, to make the needed repairs.

Shortly after that the Erickson family announced that they were looking for a new home for the Erickson collection, 21 world war II war planes, all of which still fly.

It wasn't long after that that they announced plans to move the planes to Madras and open a new museum.

That museum has been open for some time now. I erroneously assumed that building in need of repairs plus losing the most significant part of their collection meant that the Tillamook Air Museum was no longer open. Something that was reinforced when we stopped their in 2015 and it was closed during what was posted as it's official open times.

I've been busy, so it took me a while to check and yes the museum is still open, although without the Erickson collection of war birds I'm unsure what is still there.

For anyone who cares that means that there are now three air museums in Oregon. The one in Tillamook, one in Madras, and one in McMinnville, which houses the Spruce Goose, the largest plane every to fly.

Sorry for the misinformation.
