LISTEN: “Rise Above” brings WWII aviation history to Stafford

by | May 19, 2026 | History, Stafford, Ted Schubel

One of the most powerful traveling World War II exhibits in the country is landing at Stafford Regional Airport this Memorial Day weekend.

You step inside a 160-degree mobile theater, get an up-close look at a restored P-51 Mustang, and experience the courage and determination of the trailblazers who helped change military aviation history.

The exhibit runs Friday thru Monday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.  Stafford County’s Memorial Day ceremony is Friday at 10 a.m. at the airport. 

We talked with Chris Allen from the exhibit about what visitors will experience.
