Erie-Ottawa International Airport

5 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 9, ISSUE 5 In a nod to this fascinating legacy, the Tin Goose Diner is a popular complement to the on-airport Liberty Aviation Museum. The eatery is located in an iconic old-fashioned metal dining car. It was originally built in New Jersey in 1949, then moved to Pennsylvania where it became Steve’s Diner. The Liberty Aviation Museum was established on December 7th, 1991 with a handful of dedicated volunteers to showcase WW2 aircraft. One of the early acquisitions was a flyable Ford Tri-motor, and this continues to be a big part of the museum, which led to the establishment of the Tri-motor Heritage Foundation. They also have a B-25 bomber, as well as other vintage planes. “The museum is a real gem of the region,” says Finken. “They pride themselves on their preservation efforts and fly-in events. These are both wonderful parts of what we offer here at the airport. The Diner is both a restaurant and a living history exhibit, with surplus income being re-invested into the museum.
