Most planes in ready-2-fly conditon. They now have a DC-3 in good shape. and a f7 tigercat. Nice, but modest collection. Not as robust as the american heritage collection - but growing.

Small, but interesting. The volunteers here are more than willing to tell you about the aircraft and even take you up inside if the aircraft isn't being worked on.

This was a truly excellent museum. The exhibits are put into (accurate) context and there is acknowledgement of all theatres of fighting in WW2 rather than simply focusing on the US aspects as many others usually do. Planes are well presented with 2 or 3 completely unique aircraft - the last examples of their kind. Video screens dotted around make... More

We really enjoyed seeing the vintage planes and getting an up close and personal history lesson! We were even allowed to climb into the cockpit and sit in the pilot's seat. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Check it out!

See the lighthouse, walk the beach, enjoy the views of Whidby Island, the Cascade Mountains and the ferries gliding back and forth across the sound. The only minus...a lack of picnic tables! With Ivar's just up the street an al fresco lunch was only natural!

The foundation is run by an energic group of volunteers. There is warm enthusiasm as we were show each aircraft at a leisurely pace. It is conveniently located near the Future of Flight.
