    The employees were amazing and highly informative, they took their time to explain where to look and all of the interesting planes to see. Most of the planes at the museum still fly which was fascinating! You get to go inside of the flying fortress and walk through it. Amazing place especially for the 20 dollars it cost!

    I visited whilst driving from LAX to PHX whilst visiting from the UK. There is a great collection of WW2 airplanes on display, and some really rare ones too. Bill, one of the volunteers was so interesting with his knowledge about the planes on display and some of the history behind some of them. I could of easily spent more time there. I will definitely be coming back in the future!! I highly recommend this museum to everyone!

    An exceptional museum for aviation enthusiasts! We were four French crews and had the privilege of being guided by Bill, whose knowledge and passion truly enhanced our visit. The collection of aircraft is impressive. A must-see experience for any aviation lover!

    I learned so much here. I don't know much about planes but love all things history and especially living history. Seeing these planes, they display two sides of any invention: when it's sophisticated and increasingly technologically advanced but also rugged and tough to endure. It really makes it much easier to imagine how people lived in times of the past. Our tour guide, John, was amazingly experienced with his past of being in the service of several different planes and he answered every question with ease. We were more than satisfied with the tour and with the sheer amount of history here. Also- we were there during the moving of various planes for an airshow. So we had the cool experience of watching the crew work on them and watching them kick off into the air. I respect all the restoration and maintenance it takes for these planes to still be around let alone still be airworthy. I couldn't recommend it more.

    Great museum if you like planes from the past. I spent 2 hours there, and Gary, a volunteer, helped me navigate the museum well, explaining all the planes and history behind them. Thank you, Gary.

    Oh man! Planes from every decade since the Wright Brothers! And the docent and other volunteers are so full of knowledge. Every time I come and visit, I learn something new about something. It's a bonus when you see one of their airplane start up and fly too! Yesterday I got to see the SBD Dauntless and a P-51 Mustang fly. So awesome.

    Another awesome place to visit. Take your time walking around in and out of the hangars. Coolest part was Tom Cruise’ P51 mustang from “Maverick “ was there. Never expected to see that. You can also have your own tour guide for free with the men there that know a lot of history about those planes willing to walk with you the whole way.

    Had very good time here looking at the past aviation relics that were utilized to defend our freedom as a Americans 🇺🇸 many decades ago. Many of these aircraft on display are flyable which makes this museum more remarkable bringing antiques back to life in this present age. Definitely need 2-3 hours to look at all the exhibits in good timely manner. Jesus Christ Loves You!!!
