Hiller Aviation Museum

Description

• We use aviation as a gateway for people to embrace adventure and innovation while using tools of science to explore how the physical world works and how the dream of flight is made into reality. The Hiller Aviation Institute & Museum was founded by helicopter pioneer Stanley Hiller Jr. in June 1998.The museum can trace its origins to the 1970's. A group of eclectic aircraft, collected by Stanley Hiller, Jr., was gathered in a warehouse in Redwood City but only accessible to the general public by special appointment. The growing collection consisted of unique early aircraft, one-of-a-kind prototypes and cutting edge test vehicles, some of which came from the Hiller Aircraft Company.Stanley understood that progress in solving global transportation issues, with aviation as a key element, required a relentless capacity for innovation. He recognized the strength the Bay Area possessed in harboring the talent, science, progressive attitudes, and capital resources needed to develop science and aviation in the 21st Century. To fulfil this dream, the museum has the flexibility to house and display inspiring examples of aviation technology, to tell the stories of adventurous aviation pioneers, and to provide facilities that allow the community to gather and explore science and technology through the gateway of aviation.
