    The Pioneer Air Museum in Fairbanks, Alaska, offers visitors a look into the aviation history of the region. Located at the East Ramp of Fairbanks International Airport, the museum houses a collection of vintage aircraft and memorabilia that highlight the important role of aviation in Alaska's development.
