Air Museum
Tillamook Air Museum is an aviation museum south of Tillamook, Oregon in the United States. The museum is located at a former U.S. Navy Air Station and housed in a former blimp hangar, known as "Hangar B", which is the largest clear-span wooden structure in the world. The six-blimp hangar was built by the United States Navy in 1942 during World War II for Naval Air Station Tillamook. It is 1,072 feet long and 296 feet wide, covering more than 7 acres. It stands 192 feet tall. Each door weighs 30 short tons and are 120 feet tall. On display in the main hangar are more than 30 aircraft, from World War 1 to an F-14 Tomcat from the modern jet age. The planes have been donated by private collectors, purchased by the museum and put on permanent loan by the U.S. Navy.
Tilamook
The city is named for the Tillamook people, a Native American tribe speaking a Salishan language who lived in this area until the early 19th century. Historically, the Tillamook economy has been based primarily on dairy farms. The farmland surrounding the city is used for grazing the milk cattle that supply the Tillamook County Creamery Association's production of cheese, particularly cheddar, gourmet ice cream and yogurt, and other dairy products.
