Welcome to the Lauretta Schimmoler Museum Inc. website.
We are getting a new terminal building!
New Terminal Building
Construction has started on the new terminal building for Port Bucyrus – Crawford County Airport (17G). Planned completion is October of 2026.
Old Terminal and Hangar
The old terminal building and hangar will eventually be torn down, once the new terminal construction is completed. The ramp area will be reconfigured (a safety issue) and eventully the gas pump(s) will be relocated.
