Palm Springs Air Museum Live Cam

The apron at the Palm Springs Air Museum lies below this webcam, in the desert of southern California. Propeller aircraft and a jet fighter stand parked in front of the hangars, with the San Jacinto mountains rising behind the field.

The museum keeps a large collection of Second World War and later combat aircraft, most of them airworthy rather than static, and flies them on display days. It shares the field with Palm Springs airport, so airline traffic uses the same runway.

The desert light here is hard and the mountains are usually sharp. Summer temperatures on this apron regularly pass forty degrees.
