Wangaratta Airport (IATA: WGTICAO: YWGT) is located about 5 km from Wangaratta, Victoria, Australia just off the Hume Highway. It used to be home to the Air World Museum, which closed in 2002, and most of its collection was subsequently relocated by its new owners. The media reported in 2004 that the facility was developing as a major warbird restoration enterprise called the Pacific Fighters Museum.
