#FromTheArchives How far away are you from Hill Air Force Base? This map was displayed at a supply conference post-World War II so that Air Force Bases around the United States could identify their proximity to Hill Air Force Base and the support it provides. The thickness of the line estimates the number of days away supplies could be, while the connected dots indicate the direct path that supplies will take. This map illustrates the significant role that Hill Air Force Base has played in supplying air materiel across the United States for more than 80 years! #HillAerospaceMuseum #FreeAdmission #HillAFB #USAF

#GuessTheAircraft with these three hints! 1. These aircraft were specially equipped with the MA-1 System, which could take control of the aircraft to maintain proper attack positions, break the aircraft off from attack runs, come back to the vicinity of its base and return control to the pilot for landing. 2. Convair built 277 of these before ending production. 3. This aircraft was powered by one Pratt & Whitney J75-P-17 turbojet engine.

In 1960, Air Force munitions depot operations consolidated at Hill Air Force Base under the 2705th Air Munitions Wing, to include the Explosive Ordnance Disposal mission, more commonly called EOD. Hill’s new EOD unit had the responsibility to conduct reconnaissance, detection, recovery, field evaluation, and safe disposal of all unexploded ordnance and explosives in the US and overseas for our warfighters. This mission continues at Hill Air Force Base today through the 775th Explosive Ordnance Disposal Flight. #HillAerospaceMuseum #FreeAdmission #HillAFB #USAF

The Hill Aerospace Museum sends a huge THANK YOU to all the people who made this year's Open Aircraft Day possible! It was an incredible day filled with great family moments, food, music, learning, and fun! Special thanks to all the units from Hill Air Force Base who came and interacted with the community, all the weapon system specialists who introduced people to the aircraft, and the event volunteers. We also want to express our gratitude to Lieutenant Colonel "Stonewall" Johnson and Mr. Joe Chew for speaking on their experiences with the renowned F-22 Raptor! There were more people at the Museum on Saturday than we've ever seen before!
