Butler County Warbirds

The Butler County Warbirds is a non-profit organization located at the Middletown Regional Airport in Middletown, Ohio focused on military aviation history.

History
The Butler County Warbirds was founded in 2000 by Sandra Arany, Timothy Epperhart, Jean Lail, Roger Palmer and William Palmer. After 11 years, the group opened a museum in the 1938 City Hangar at the Middletown Regional Airport.

The organization began raising funds to purchase a North American AT-6 Texan in October 2022. Plans call for the profits from rides sold in the airplane to go to an aviation scholarship for women.
