I have visited numerous museums of this type across the US but this is by far the best. The exhibits are clean with lots of items that are interesting to everyone. My daughter and I were especially interested in the history of women in flight. Find out the # 1 requirement for being a one of the first flight attendants.... More

Great way to spend a Saturday afternoon and study history. I love to listen to some of the folks talk about their roles in the "good ole days" of aviation. Well worth the trip.

I recently had the pleasure to visit my daughter in Meridian Idaho. She was very excited to have me come because she wanted to take me to the Warhawk Air Museum. I have never been in the military but she was in the Air Force back in the 80's. The museum has a wonderful display of memorabilia from WW11, Korean... More

A must see if you have any interest in WWII history. Great plane and vehicle displays, plan to spend a couple of hours minimum. Do not be fooled by location or outside appearance, this is a first class museum.

It doesn't look like much from the outside. Just a big hanger next to a municple airport. But, don't let the cover of this book fool you. This is the best collection of WWII memorabilia (and other military periods) I have ever seen in one place. Show case after show case of uniforms, letters, weapons...you name it. This place has...

The facilities are incredible! The displays are some of the best and the people are well informed and helpful. I have been here several times and I plan on returning again. Everyone should take time to visit and reflect on a great past time in our history.

A little hard to find but what a great afternoon. The folks in the gift shop are friendly and like to talk with travelers. The museum is 'self guided' but that's fine. Any of the knowledgeable staff can answer any questions you may have. There ar a number of vintage cars as well as planes and case upon case of... More

We went to the air museum to watch the old fighter planes take some lucky passengers who had won a ride with them. Our good friend, Terry (who has since lost his battle with cancer) had it on his bucket list to fly in a P51 Mustang. It was an epic day to witness this dream come true for him.... More
