The Poplar Grove Vintage Wings & Wheels Museum is dedicated to Pre-WWII transportation history. Located on the Poplar Grove Airport (C77) in northern Illinois, the Museum is on 12 acres and has several early 20th century airplane hangars and automotive garages which have been saved from destruction and relocated to our campus where they have been renovated for future generations to enjoy. Our mission focuses not only preserving history, but also educating people. With that in mind, we offer a variety of outreach programs to area grade schools, field trips, summer camps, lectures, and a scholarship program. Check the various links on this website for more information.
TAVAS brings to life aircraft from the first 25 years of aviation history, particularly trainers and fighters from WW1. We are building full size, flying reproductions and replicas of the aircraft from that time to create a flying museum to display these aircraft to the Australian public.
TAVAS is an established Not For Profit organisation whose aim is to educate all Australians of the major impact that the early flying machines and the people who flew them, had during World War One and how they helped create the world of Aviation we know today.
