Wow! What a well put together museum with so much information! Its open only on Saturdays, but I called because we were going to only be in town in the middle of the week, and I just thought my husband would really like to see it. Amazingly, the lady in charge opened the place up for us. It was so worth it. If you get a chance to visit, please do. There is so much history in that building, and all the old planes are in working condition and used for air shows and reenactments. My husband is a major history buff, so it was a special treat for him. My girls and I learned a lot just by looking at the different exhibits. Theres a whole section on HW Bushs rescue from the Pacific. They have all this information and equipment related to aerial photography during the war. You can also touch different types of plane engines. Theres a lot to see. Julie, thanks for making this visit possible for us. We are grateful and impressed by the work yall are doing there.

Nice place, lots of history. Would have given it 5 stars but some Wilfred Brimley looking fella kept trying to do wheelies on a small motorcycle. Had he actually done it, 5 Stars all the way.

Very educational. You can walk around close to all the different planes, they just ask that you dont touch them. The videos and history they had was awesome! We will be going again once it gets warmer to see the garden and enjoy the outside while reading the awards and biographies displayed.

Wonderful place to go to. Staff was very friendly, we let the grandchildren, all girls age 10, 9, & 5 go on a flight in the beach craft air force plane. They loved it! Would recommend taking a flight while you are there, every staff member was eager to make your museum trip memorable and enjoyable.

This place was really top notch, greeted at the door by two really nice guys wanting to know where we had come from and if we would like a guided tour. We opted to go on unguided due to our little one being impatient, we’re handed brochures and info about the air show and were told thank you for coming in today and enjoy. Phenomenal fellow. We walked through what looks like a working museum, absolutely amazing displays of historical hardware and the story to match. This place allows you to walk up to working projects that keep planes in the air and get a feel for how meticulous the building and repairing process is. It appears this place is funded by the people who visit so we donated some cash however were never asked nor made to feel obligated to do so (you will personally feel the desire to donate once you meet the people and see the exhibits) I would go back there and I recommend this place highly.
