Adopt-A-Plane
Individual aircraft sponsorship is a great way to show your company’s support for the Aviation History & Technology Center and the men and women who proudly served our country. Yearly sponsorship helps to provide:
- Annual maintenance and cleaning of sponsored aircraft
- Minor restoration and preservation efforts of sponsored aircraft
- Updated interpretive information placards at sponsored aircraft
- Ongoing research and presentation of educational elements associated with the sponsored aircraft
- A portion of the total restoration and repainting as needed

As a sponsor in the AHTC Adopt-A-Plane program, you will enjoy the following:
- A custom sign at the aircraft information placard recognizing you or your company as the aircraft’s sponsor
- A custom-framed portrait of you and your friends/employees in front of the aircraft
- Visibility in front of thousands of museum visitors annually
- Recognition as the sponsor on the “Featured Aircraft” webpage
- Recognition at all special event and activities, especially those centered around the sponsored aircraft
- Invitation for you and/or your company to participate in a Plane Wash day
- Benefits of the JetStar-level Community Partner Program
