Amelia Earhart Hangar Museum

The new Amelia Earhart Hangar Museum invites visitors to journey through the adventurous life of the trailblazing aviator who became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. Located in Earhart's Atchison, Kansas, hometown, the state-of-the-art museum features 14 interactive science and history storytelling exhibits surrounding "Muriel" — the world's last remaining Lockheed Electra 10-E aircraft. Named after Earhart's younger sister, "Muriel" is identical to the plane Earhart flew on her final flight.
