  • An unexpected surprise. Lots of great history to look at. You are able to sit and walk on/into a significant amount of vehicles and planes. The hanger is very large so it did not feel overcrowded. The admission was super reasonable and they do accept donations in addition to the admission. Kids loved it and the displays kept their attention for a very long time!! If you are in the area it is a pleasant surprise. Check out the diner next door as well and there is also the brewery right around the corner!!
  • This is an amazing museum I would highly suggest to go to It has a lot of different airplanes from different errors and also has engine setup so that you could see their propulsion systems along with individuals that can explain things to you and teach if you are interested in learning about the planes here. They do a yearly plane show with authentic plans and you will actually see them flying in and flying out along with parking up with the other planes and you can go over and take a look It's a pretty cool thing to bring the kids out to or to even just go with your significant other I would highly suggest this
  • Great place to visit. We went on a rainy day. It is also more than just aviation, a lot of historical peices from that period. I would go back at least a couple more times. The Vietnam memorial is also worth visiting. It's small but nice to see. A lot of pictures and items from the war.
  • An amazing, well thought out museum which is also a huge aircraft hanger! My family stopped here on the way back from a trip to the shore and it was totally worth every minute. Even though my kids aren't feeling great and also tired from a long trip, every space of this museum had something for my kids to do. That was fun and interesting; the best part that they could go into so many of the actual vehicles to see what's inside. We came on a day where they also had some original older aircraft flying all day long, definitely a treat as well. Outside they had food trucks and a live band as well. A really great effort by the creators of this museum and the staff who run it!
  • Great little air museum at an active airport. There is a good number of places and helicopter to see. Some of which you are allowed to go inside very cool. Next door there is an awesome restaurant and a Vietnam War Museum.
