This museum is a living airplane hanger. Many of the classic planes are still operational and they take them out for air shows. You can get up close and see and touch many of the planes. The Vietnam hanger was very nice and hit home.

If you like aircraft, this is a must see. The docents were excellent. I encountered a rotation of three different gentleman. One had worked with NASA and another was an aviator for the Coast Guard and a third who started the introduction in the main building. They were all great. Really happy I took the time to drive down and see the exhibits. The aircraft were from all eras including some helicopters. I even had the opportunity to see where they were restoring several planes. The guys took the time to explain a number of technical aspects about many of the aircraft that I had not known. I spent about 2 or 2 1/2 hours. Very well worth the visit. I will be back this next year. I was there between 12pm and 3pm. Thanks!…

There’s a section for the Battle of Britain. Then you go out into the hangers and find them crammed with aircraft, some undergoing restoration. A separate section is dedicated to those lost in the Vietnam war and then a hanger ful of aircraft used in that conflict. A well-spent 2 hours (if you have an interest in military aircraft).…

For a smaller airport, this museum boasts a fine collection of restored military aircraft from the U.S. and other nations. Many of them are still in flying condition and we arrived just after a WWII B-25 had flown that day. Timing is everything. The staff and docents were extremely knowledgeable and instructive. Amazing to see one of the ONLY P-82 fighter aircraft from the WWII. This is a pair of P-51 Mustangs assembled together in a twin fuselage configuration. The museum does not sit on a major highway, but just follow the signs, as it is well worth the visit.…
