Great place to visit for any history or war enthusiasts. My boys loved it (ages 11 and 14) and I thought it was interesting too. More

Neat planes to see and very interesting. Plus it is family friendly and no problem walking around even though it is large. The gift shop has a lot of choices. More

Great activity for the family. Really a fun time if you enjoy the military, or guns or munitions generally. Can be paced for those with small children and older folks too, no rush here. More

If you are a aviation buff you have to go. They show all the bombs and missiles since WWII, plus a large number of airplanes including the SR 71. More

We usually stop here on our way home. My son (and my husband) love planes. Everyone is really nice and loves to answer any questions you might have. It's interesting if you enjoy that type of thing, if not you might want to look elsewhere. More
