This is a national aviation museum, located 25 kilometers west of Rio de Janeiro, which opened on October 18, 1976, in an old aerospace institute. The idea of building this museum dates back to 1943, when Mr. Salgado Filho, then the Minister of Aviation, decided to start the construction, but the initial work of the museum was delayed due to the lack of a suitable site and space installations. The current Aerospace Museum is part of the UniversityoftheAirForce'scampus (UNIFA), which since 1986 has been managed by the Historic-CulturalInstituteofAeronautics.
