Cabaña Guyra Purahéi Museo Aeronáutico

The public recreation venue incorporates retired aircraft as part of an aviation-themed experience. The Paraguayan tourism board identifies a former government Cessna 402, a Vietnam-era military helicopter and a second helicopter intended for an aviation simulator. The aviation component emphasizes full-size civil transport and retired military rotorcraft used to interpret flight in a visitor recreation setting. Aviation exhibits are located at a visitor facility rather than a conventional formal museum. The model of the Vietnam-era helicopter is not confirmed in the source, and the simulator aircraft should not be counted as an operational aircraft. The aircraft records are selected documented collection entries rather than a complete inventory. An aircraft may be temporarily away from the museum, held in storage, undergoing restoration, or represented by a replica or partial airframe. An unknown display status does not mean the aircraft can be seen during a visit. Confirm opening arrangements and specific aircraft access with the institution before traveling.
