40yrslogo
The South Australian Aviation Museum started in 1984 as the South Australian Aviation & Warbirds Restoration Group. Over the years, the name was changed to the South Australian Historical Aviation Museum, and then to the South Australian Aviation Museum (SAAM). SAAM started at Glenelg, moved to Mundy Street, Port Adelaide, then to Ocean Steamers Road, Port Adelaide. In 2005, SAAM moved to our current location at 16 Bedford Street, Port Adelaide.
