The FFA Museum / Fliegermuseum Fahrzeugmuseum Altenrhein is an aviation museum at Altenrhein airfield. It has around 15 historic aircraft, most of which are still airworthy and are flown regularly. Most of these aircraft have a strong connection to Swiss aviation. These old-timers are exhibited in the museum, but many are owned and operated by private associations, e.g. Bü 131 HB-UUY.
Members of the Museum Society have the opportunity to take part in a sightseeing flight in these old-timers, including in the Hawker Hunter. Furthermore, an original propeller of the legendary Do X as well as extensive documentation of its creation is available, as the former Dornier factory was located at Altenrhein airfield.
