Location

Oshkosh, United States

Pioneer Airport is a historic grass-and-turf airfield located on the grounds of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) campus in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. It serves as a living museum of early aviation, featuring vintage aircraft, antique hangars, and a replica 1930s-era village that evokes the golden age of flight. The airport is closely tied to EAA AirVenture Oshkosh, the world's largest annual airshow, held each summer at the adjacent Wittman Regional Airport. During AirVenture, Pioneer Airport comes alive with flying demonstrations of historic aircraft and serves as a key attraction for aviation enthusiasts. The site is operated by the EAA and functions primarily as an educational and heritage facility rather than a commercial or general aviation airport. It hosts the EAA Aviation Museum, one of the premier aviation museums in North America.
