The March Field Air Museum is an aviation museum near Moreno Valley and Riverside, California, located at March Air Reserve Base.

History

The museum was founded in 1979 as March Air Force Base Museum. One of the first exhibits at the museum was a collection of art painted by Hazel Olson.{{cite news |last1=Ellis |first1=Howard |title=Artist to Donate Painting to March Air Base Museum |url=http://www.newspapers.com/newspage/62442652 |access-date=13 November 2021 |work=The Sun |date=12 June 1979 |page=B-2}}{{cite news |last1=Ellis |first1=Howard |title=March Historical Art Museum Features Colton Woman's Work |url=http://www.newspapers.com/newspage/62866246 |access-date=13 November 2021 |work=The Sun |date=30 September 1979 |page=B-1}} It moved to a new location at the base's former commissary, where it reopened to the public in 1981. That same year, a B-29 was flown to the museum.{{cite news |title=Oldest Flying Fortress Makes Its Last Flight Soon |url=http://www.newspapers.com/newspage/679219825 |access-date=13 November 2021 |work=The Biggs News |date=9 July 1981}} The museum moved again in 1993 to its current location west of the runway along Interstate 215. Originally operated by the Air Force, the museum's operation was transferred to a nonprofit organization in 1996.{{cite web|title=Our History|url=http://www.marchfield.org/about-us/museum-history|website=March Field Air Museum|publisher=March Field Air Museum|access-date=6 August 2017}}

In the media

=Television=

The March Field Air Museum was featured on an episode of Ghost Adventures in 2018. The team of paranormal investigators investigated paranormal claims of artifacts being thrown out of their glass cases by an unseen force while in the Main Hangar, voices of children who died with their mother from the flu when they lived on the property before the Restoration Hangar was built, and sounds of soldiers preparing for battle while in the Lockheed C-141 Starlifter display aircraft.{{Cite web|url=https://www.travelchannel.com/shows/ghost-adventures/episodes/riverside-plane-graveyard|title=Riverside Plane Graveyard}}
