Huffman Prairie is one of those sites that is significant not because of what is there, but because of what happened there. This large, empty field is the world's first airport! The visitor center...

Really nice facility. Very educational. Loved the short film about the Wright Bros.

What a beautiful, peaceful place, full of so much history. Lots of places to either sit and enjoy your coffee, read a book or just be there in the moment. The gift shop/museum is wonderful and very educational. I appreciate that there was a park ranger there to answer any questions about the Wright Brothers or the history of the park.

This was a great park, museum and memorial. The view of the Air Force Base are breathtaking the park is very handicap accessible. The museum was very hand on with many thing to read and learn about the Wright Brothers, the whole experience was free, excluding the gift shop and who can go without buying something to take home for the kids. The staff was also very helpful and informative, a must see should only take 1hr to tour the whole thing and watch the video.

The moment I entered the place I was greeted by a very friendly staff! She gave me a quick overview of what I'd expect to see inside. This is a small place but with tons of info about the Wright Brothers and the history of flight. This is close to the Airforce museum, so you could easily include this as a stopover.

Hidden gem! A must see if you want a complete history of the Wright Brothers and their impact to flight.
