Aviation Museum

Bus stop

👍 An amazing place to visit for a quick lazy stroll. Has a wide variety of cool aircraft like the decommissioned Coronets along with the rarer less known WW2 ones. In the summer they also have rides for just $50(don't remember) on the older planes that go through Eastern Ottawa. People often mention kids, museum,

    Four stars for the adults but probably 3 stars for the kids. Nice big museum full of planes and aviation history. Some interactive displays for the kids but much of the activities cost money to participate (including the guided tour). Parking is $3 per hour up to a max of $8 which can also be used at the Science and Tech and Agriculture museum on the same day. Parking and admission is also free to veterans. Needs more interactive displays to keep kids interested.

    Absolutely awesome museum! A must see if you are an airplane lover! They have a great collection of airplanes and simulators you can fly. The ambience is nice and they have a small restaurant with tables and chairs, as well as a gift shop. The whole museum and restrooms are clean. Taking pictures is allowed as well.

    Definitely much better than I expected. Lots of very interesting airplanes, some from WW2 and even a few Luftwaffe aircraft that is very cool to see in person. I wish they had some variety in terms of bigger jet-powered airplanes but a fun museum to visit nevertheless.

    I'll spare you my views on war and space travel. The building is full of a wide range of aircraft, a lot more than expected from pre-war. A plethora of videos, historical excerpts, and interactive displays for all ages. Plenty of staff, a few, very knowledgeable. Paid 8 bucks for parking and a no time limit full exploration of this place is easily worth that!
