Connellan Hangar

The historic Connellan Hangar was purchased in pre-fabricated form from the Sydney Williams Company in 1939 by prominent Central Australian aviation figure Eddy Connellan.

It was constructed at the town Aerodrome in Alice Springs by the staff of Connellan Airways, and various extensions were added prior to the Aerodrome's closing in 1968.

In 1979 the Central Australian Aviation Museum Society extensively restored the building with funds from the Northern Territory Government. Visit the Araluen Cultural Precinct.
