- MarshallCharlotte, NC4 contributionsKeeping three active boys entertained for 3 & 1/2 hours. The dinosaur exhibit drew us, and it was certainly impressive; however, we spent more time at the other exhibits.
There is a contraption just outside the Cool Stuff area where a dozen kids are spinning levers and wheels to move sand like pebbles up and down and back again. We had to pull our grandkids away after 25 minutes.
And see if you can find the six hidden Vietnamese Moss toads.
We went on a Monday, so crowds were not an issue.Written July 1, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

There are a ton of aircraft on display such as a F-14, UH-1, AH-1J, A-7, C-130, CH-53, and numerous others. The pride of the museum is the actual aircraft that Captain Sully landed in the Hudson River.
Parking is free, tickets are cheap. There are several interactive exhibits as well as a Aviation Experimentation Lab focused towards children.
Overall, this is an excellent little museum. Even if you’re a big reader, it’ll only take about 2 hours to go through the whole museum.Written November 6, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
