Small but with lots of information about WACO planes! Stop by and enjoy two hangars full of exhibits.

Fun time looking at all the biplanes. Old cars and corvettes display was a nice bonus.

Great museum for learning about aircraft produced by the WACO aircraft company which originally started out in Ohio and manufactured a whole range of aircraft components and biplanes, especially during WWI and the interwar years.Unlike now, when there are only a handful of massive corporations manufacturing aircraft globally, the aviation sector was more open in those days and had a whole bunch of relatively small/medium players. The museum offers a glimpse back to those days and the ability to relive them through flights in a WACO biplane (recommend calling in advance to confirm pilot availability and aircraft readiness). Being an open cockpit aircraft, its a completely different experience from most GA aircraft.All the volunteers at the museum when I visited were amazing and super friendly. Would definitely recommend checking out if youve an interest in aviation history or just want to go for a flight in a biplane.

Very nice, small aviation museum about the WACO (like taco) Aircraft Company. It takes about 1.5 hours to do this place.

I visited the WACO museum recently and was pleasantly surprised at the historical planes and exhibits. I did not realize the significance of this Company right here locally. I am a history buff and I learned much on the WACO WWII D-Day Gliders as well as some of the most popular race planes during that early time frame. BTW... the gift shop has some great stuff as well. I bought a WACO bi-plane Christmas Ornament. This stop is definitely worth an hour!

A great display of the history of the aircraft company, the people who played a role in development of the aircraft and the gliders used in WWII. I had forgotten how much of an impact the WACO company had in the Great War.

Terrific Museum! I was the sole visitor one morning and received a superb tour from the Executive Director and her wonderful dog! This museum was a LOT OF FUN and I would certainly come back. For a small museum, it packs in a great deal of aircraft, displays and information. The gift shop is excellent as well! I had a fantastic time here and would certainly highly recommend it to all pilots (you can fly in!) and those driving autos. Thank you for a really fun visit today!
