Vintage Aero Flying Museum

Vintage Aero Flying Museum, formally LaFayette1 Escadrille Flying Museum, is Colorado's international aviation museum at Platte Valley Airpark, 4 miles northwest of Hudson, Colorado and 40 miles northeast of Denver, Colorado.Andy Parks, son of the last World War I Lafayette Escadrille member who 'flew west', James Parks², maintains the legacy and history of the LaFayette Escadrille pilots. The collection of each of these pilots' original uniforms and memorabilia is on display in custom cabinets in a secured hangar of World War I aircraft. There is no other collection of this magnitude in the world today. The Parks have created a museum in a rural setting, much like a French rural World War I air field.

VAFM is a 501 non-profit organization and its foundation was created by James Parks in 1984 as a historical and educational foundation.
