flag A 2025 storm damaged Oregon’s historic WWII Hangar B, threatening its collapse and risking loss of a key aviation landmark.

flag A December 2025 storm severely damaged the historic WWII-era Hangar B at the Tillamook Air Museum in Oregon, tearing a 200-foot by 30-foot hole in its roof and forcing an indefinite closure. flag The iconic wooden structure, built in 1943 by the U.S. Navy to store airships, now faces potential collapse without urgent repairs estimated at $2 million to $5 million for initial fixes and up to $50 million for a full restoration. flag The museum, which houses a collection of vintage aircraft including an F-14 Tomcat and an AV-8B Harrier II, lacks the funds to cover the costs, relying on public donations and community support to save the landmark. flag The hangar’s survival is now in question as officials and preservationists work to secure funding and prevent the loss of a major piece of American aviation history.
