Historical Aircraft Squadron

The Historical Aircraft Squadron is a non-profit organization located at the Fairfield County Airport in Carroll, Ohio focused on aviation history.

History
The organization was founded in 1994. The following year, the organization considered building a museum with the promise that they might receive an airplane from Dave Tallichet. This came to pass in May 1998 when it was lent a Douglas A-26 Invader from his Military Aircraft Restoration Corporation. Eventually, it was joined by another A-26 and a North American B-25 Mitchell that were also placed on loan to the museum. The restoration of the first A-26 was completed in September 2009 and two years later left the museum for the 1941 Historical Aircraft Group Museum.

In the meantime, the organization built a new hangar at the airport in 2000, which it signed a 10-year lease for the next year. A Grumman S2F-1 Tracker was based with the squadron for a time in 2002. A plan for a church to build a new hangar at the airport in 2006 caused the museum to express concerns that it might lose some of its ramp space.
