A Post-Closure Public Message
Caboolture Warplane Museum Closed. Thank You for 30 Remarkable Years
To our valued community, supporters, and distinguished government representatives,
On behalf of everyone who has contributed to the long and proud story of our aviation history museum, we extend our heartfelt thanks. Your encouragement, advocacy, and shared passion for preserving our nation’s aviation heritage have sustained us over many decades. We are especially grateful to the government officials and partner organisations who walked with us through the closing chapter of our museum’s operation.
Although our doors have now closed, our story does not end. Like the cycle of life—what has been cherished continues to offer new purpose—our collection, memorabilia, and the stories entrusted to us will live on. Through carefully selected museum partners and historical organisations, the artefacts and knowledge we have protected will continue to educate, inspire, and enrich future generations. In this way, the legacy of our museum takes flight once more, carried forward by institutions equipped to share it with the world.
To our visitors, volunteers, donors, veterans, families, and friends: thank you. You have ensured that the achievements, sacrifices, and innovations of those who came before us will never be forgotten. While this chapter closes, the spirit of discovery and remembrance that defined our museum endures—reborn in new homes where it can continue to shine.
With deep gratitude,
Volunteers @ the Caboolture Warplane Museum (2025)
