Alice Springs Aviation Museum

The museum had it's beginning in 1977 following the tragic suicide flight into the Connair complex at the Alice Springs airport on January 5th that year.
A group of locals sought to recognise the sacrifice made by those who lost their lives in that terrible event. CAAM Inc. was formed and began the long task of gathering and restoring the displays present here today.
CAAM acknowledges the generous assistance of the NT Government through the Regional Museums Grants programme and the support of the towns-folk.

Our work is still on-going as we continue to gather items that are important to preserving the past; so much a part of the development of this vast, isolated country. View our collection of historic aviation related items, aswell as videos showing the the DC3 Theatrette, and elsewhere. You may wish to purchase an item from our shop, all profits are put towards improving the museum.
