The Learjet was unveiled to the community as part of the museum's 50th-anniversary ceremony. The jet once housed Neil Armstrong after his adventure on the moon and thus broke many records with it, such as total altitude in a horizontal flight. Museum officials say that the Learjet will not cost anything to view for Wapakoneta residents and beyond.

The Learjet 28 was brought from the Armstrong Airport in New Knoxville to the museum disassembled on top of three separate semi-trailers. The museum got the plane on Armstrong's birthday in August 2020, but they have been working on getting the jet for years before that. Now they are glad to see the plane that he flew following his career at NASA.
