Reviews of Lone Star Flight Museum (Museum)

Dylan Gotesky

Beautiful museum. Staff was very informative. Something for everyone to do and see.

Alejandra Capooci

We came here for an Army ball but really enjoyed seeing the planes they’ve got there. Guy at the check in area was super nice and my husband and I engaged in conversation with him and he was so kind to explain things about museum to us.

Jim and Ginny Passe

One of the best museums we have been to in a long time. It is truly a class act! Just Go!

Aaron Baker

The facility is so nice. They have lots of experiments for kids to understand how planes and aerodynamics affect flight. Very nicely restored aircraft too.

Laura Pennino

Great facilty. Great aircraft collection. Passionate leaders and staff committed to STEM.

Meg Baum

We really enjoyed this place! Very cool to see how the vintage planes.

El MF

Great place to cool off in the summer heat. The planes are in crazy good condition, and there's plenty to read about them and many history making aviators, many from Texas. There's even a spot where you can fly a simulator - I wish I could remember the (very) young mans' name that helped us - he was super sweet and knowledgeable. We had a great time visiting and picked up some great merch - I love my Flight Museum Visor!

Alexis Palmer

I have been wanting to go for years and I was NOT disappointed. I have loved aviation my whole life. Very nice people who work there, very clean bathrooms. Extensive knowledge and fantastic collection of old war birds! Truly a awesome experience. Can't wait to take my son when he can appreciate it more! I'd give this place a higher rating if I could. Also kids 3 and under free and adults 15$! No brainier for any summer activities with the family to beat the heat!??

Barbara Griffin

Great place with the most helpful and friendly staff/volunteers ever!

Mark Kirschke

Went there for the Mustang show. Since it took up the parking lot, you really had to look for other parking and there was no one there to assist you to find a safe legal place to park. Went inside to check out all the planes and helicopters on display. Checked out all the educational stuff which is mostly for kids.

Drone Parks Worldwide

Without a doubt the best private aerospace museum in the nation. The B-17 is out of this world! Lone Star is a very nice facility; you could eat off of their hangar if you wanted. The ALC is a wonderful place for kids to learn about aviation in an experiential environment. You have to see this place!

Gary Kulp

Over the top. Great docents. GREAT

Zoanne Zapata

This is a lovely venue. Fairly new, extremely clean. Docents are volunteers and were all very knowledgeable. Could easily spend an entire day between the tour and exhibits.

Heidi Tuynman

Lone Star Flight Museum is huge! It's definitely a must see. The kids had a lot of fun at the interactive exhibit area. We loved all of the aircraft, especially the helicopter. There was a special robotics show where the kids got to control one of the robots. Ending the day at the gift shop is the way to go. We all bought shirts and the kids got toys.

Donald Hodges

Great museum!! Very family friendly, awesome children's area, and lots of cool planes to see and learn about. The fact that most of the planes are still air-worthy is really impressive!!

Alma V.

A wonderful experience, excellent place to go with the little ones! Highly recommended

Daniel Burden

A very interesting place to go at least once in your life. My kids had a blast on the flight simulators. Former pilots and other experienced personnel were patrolling the exhibits, frequently stopping by and sharing concepts and experiences with genuine zeal. If you have a family member who is obsessed with aeronautics, I could see how a membership could be worthwhile. Otherwise, a single visit should be sufficient for most. Surprisingly, the gift shop was very reasonably priced with many small objects around $3-5.

Henry Chang

The new location is more spacious, better arrangement, and more kids friendly. With better moving line suggestion ( which number to go first... Etc.)

Dan Carroll

Great place to learn and even fly a plane in a simulator.

Don Pope

Incredible museum! Great for all ages.

Joshua Smith

Wonderful museum with great hands on educational opportunities. Most of the planes are operational and we were fortunate enough to be there in a day where four of them were flying. Beautiful new facility and great staff.

HEATHER BOSANQUET

I wish i could give it more stars! Fantastic place to see planes. Lots of really cool things to do. I had 2 teens go with me and they loved it! And meeting the mechanics was awesome!

In case you were wondering, this is the same Lone Star Flight Museum that was previously in Galveston, TX. They moved out of the old facility due to size restrictions and concern over possible damage from hurricanes (they previously got hit pretty hard by Ike back in '08), and needless to say the new location payed off, as they avoided damage entirely when Harvey hit. With that out of the way, on to the actual review. The new $38M, 130,000-sqft facility located at Ellington Airport houses over 20 historical aircraft and dozens of aviation artifacts, and is leaps and bounds above the previous location. The staff is helpful and friendly, and they maintain the facility and the aircraft and exhibits excellently. Admission is $14.95 for Adults, $12.95 for Seniors (65+) and Youth (12-17), and $9.95 for Children. Military discount of $11.95 is available for in person purchases (with valid ID) and is applicable for up to 4 tickets per visit. An AAA discount of $3 off is available as well. During the summer months, the museum offers $5 Museum Mondays. See website for special events and discounts. Hours are Monday thru Friday 9a to 5p, and Sunday 12p to 5p. Holidays may affect these times, call ahead if you are unsure. Upon entering the facility, you will find yourself in the central hall, consisting of admissions, a rotating gallery focusing on aviation heritage, the gift shop, and a flight simulation room (part of the museums aviation learning center), intended for STEM use, but open to public use Saturdays 11a to 3p, and Sundays 12p to 3p. At the end of the central hall, the museum splits into 2 wings, with the museums theater sitting at the end of the main hall. Down the left wing you will find the Waltrip Hangar, containing a number of iconic aircraft, including a B-17 Flying Fortress, a B-25 Michell, a P-47 Thunderbolt, and a number of other aircraft ranging from civilian to military, as well as a number of aviation artifacts, including a series of early engines and propellers from the beginnings of powered flight. The left wing of the museum continues with a number of STEM-oriented classrooms that are used for fieldtrips and the likes, providing Houston-area children and schools a healthy and plentiful environment for learning about Aviation, Engineering, and how the two combine to affect our daily lives. Down the right wing of the museum you will find the Heritage Hangar, housing the rest of the museums aircraft, of which include a 1940s era DC-3 Passenger Aircraft, an A-1 Sky Raider, a MiG-17 (on loan from another musuem; milaege may vary), a Vought F4U Corsair, an AH-1 Cobra, and a number of other aircraft, again, ranging from civilian to military, from all eras of flight. At the end of the right wing, you will find the Galleries, consisting of the Texas Aviation Heritage gallery, the Flight Academy gallery, and the Texas Aviation Hall of Fame. Each of these galleries consist of a mix of in depth info boards, detailing a broad range of aviation subjects, and interactive stations, providing visual and hands on demonstrations of various flight mechanics and aviation topics, with each area specializing in a different set of fields. The Texas Aviation Heritage gallery, for instance, covers Texas' deep roots in aviation, while the Flight Academy covers all there is to know about the foundations of aviation and flight in general. Tying in with the previous area, a number of info boards can be found within the 2 hangars, lining the walls and the hangar floor with plentiful information on the aircraft and aviation history. Of special note before I conclude is that the LSFM's collection of aircraft has a very unique quality to it, in that the majority of the museums permanent aircraft are in flight ready condition, and that the museum regularly provides ride along flights, though prices and availability vary, please contact LSFM for further information. All in all, the LSFM is a wonderful stop for anyone in the area, and will provide ample fun for all ages. Please check the museum out if you ever get the chance.

Ken Heil

This a great place of aviation history. There are plenty of exhibits from how flight flight works to hang gliders VR booths. They have something for everyone from the kids to adults

Juan Gomez

This place has a mix of War Planes, Texas History as well as Flight Science and Flight History. I can't say I have a love for Flight or it's history (still enjoyed the museum), and there was plenty of information as well as an up close look at these restored WORKING planes. We went on a day when they were flying some of the planes, so it was nice to see. There is a section for kids to enjoy and learn about how a plane fly's and how a pilot do their job. They even had a Flight Simulator, where you can sit in a booth, and attempt to land a plane from Hobby to Bush Airport. I didn't do very well, so don't let me fly your plane.... cause we won't make it!

Rebecca Fahrlender

Accidentally ran into this on our way to the airport and what a great surprise to find it! Flight simulators, STEM development partners, interactive area, and excellent historical value!

Terry Spruell

Picked up tickets for film review and visited gift shop. Both staff members I encountered were helpful and we'll informed.

Doyle E Black Jr

Iconic flying aircraft museum that let's people get up close and personal. A real look back into aircraft history. Most of these aircraft are still flyable and do fly in the Wings Over Houston airshow in October.

Chilly H

This place is SO cool! They have a flight simulator and various other fun stuff for both kids and adults. Definitely a must see and experience.

Ruben Kan

Visited this museum during Smithsonian Museum Day. The facilities are exceptional and the hangars are super clean and can be opened up. The staff are friendly and I even saw a volunteer give a good talk on the aircraft. This is well worth it if you get the $10 per person ticket. There is a room for young children to learn about the principles of flight. My only complaint is on the outside of the museum when it rains, there is massive runoff from the landscaping onto the walkways, and also the exterior door in the cafe cannot close properly and water gets in from there, but I'm sure this relatively new problem will be fixed in short order.

George Anderson

Must visit for anyone interested in aviation. Very well done and TONS to learn. Especially if you have a kid interested in learning to fly, take them here. They can learn the majority of the info they would receive in private pilot ground school here in the museum. In addition to cool old planes and great learning exhibits, there are also basic simulators, a full motion sim, and an actual plane they can preflight.

Williamfey62 _

Highly recommend a visit to this wonderful museum, the planes are well kept to the point where they actually fly them!

Bees

Wonderful people and a wonderful museum!

Dina Stewart

Great museum to learn about airplanes. Highly recommend!

Jesse Farmer

Great museum that is often over-looked in Houston. Some very neat planes in their collection and excellent text and facts accompanying the exhibits. Staff is friendly and courteous. There's also a science section with hands-on experiments regarding aerodynamics.

Jeri Pettey

Celebrated grandsons "2" year birthday !!! Great day !! Birthday boy and guests enjoyed looking at different kinds of Aircraft's, Helicopters you are able to take pictures there as well. There is so much more !!!

Yolanda Franklin

The exhibits are informative and fun. You can get up close to planes and jets. I thought the history of aviation was so interesting . This museum was amazing.

Mercedes Flores

Amazing place to enjoy planes. You get military discount and tickets are not expensive.

Victoria- Lopez

AVIATION LOVERS and history buffs will definitely enjoy this new museum

Ari Eberlin

Fantastic museum with an incredible selection of vintage and more modern aircraft!

Jennifer McNeill

Staff is friendly and knowledgeable, facility is clean, and the museum layout has a great flow. Nearly all of the aircraft on display are flight worthy, and patrons of the museum can go for flights in many of the aircraft displayed. My family and I went on a flight in the B-25 Mitchell. It was an incredible experience! I highly recommend it to anyone who is passionate about aviation. The pilots were friendly and professional. Absolutely fantastic experience.

Viper End

Great place to bring your children.

Ashley Beattie

The planes in the hangers and flight simulators are awesome. The movies were a bit weird, like an art project.

Barnes Wilkinson

The airshow was terrific. Major drawback was the excessively loud public address that drowned out the music of the airplanes engines that I wanted to hear.

Salvatore Doceti

What a nice surprise...just stopped in on my way to get an ID and truly enjoyed my visit.

T. Tucker

I wasn't sure what to expect coming here but WOW! I came here with my kids (5 and 2 years old) I just came on a whim. Heard about this museum and decided to come today and so glad we did! SO COOL! I could've stayed longer (my 2 year old was throwing a tantrum) however this place is great for kids AND adults. The aircrafts, the history, learning how planes work and how they have evolved over time was interesting. THANK YOU TO DUNCAN!! Not sure if he was a volunteer or he worked there but he was great with my son (he has autism) helping him learn about planes and navigate the different exhibits. I highly recommend coming to visit this museum. Be warned it's not easy to find I had to use my Google Maps to find the place and it was a 40-45 minute drive but totally worth it! I am going to come again in a few years when my kids are older.

Francelina Conde

Underestimated the size of this place! Really nice & clean. Will definitely go back to check out the rest of the museum!

Manan Khandelwal

THIS PLACE WAS AMAZING!!! The planes kept in the hangars were fascinating, and the information was simply put in words and very well demonstrated by live practical experiments. I'd love to go again any time.

Andrew Allen

Great setup with loads of history and fun for all ages. Highly recommend!

Andrea Karow

A really neat collection of airplanes and super kid friendly.

mani j

You have to visit this place if you are in Houston. You can spend 1.5 to 2 hours here. Good to take kids here.

Christina Adebowale

This place is so cool! Took my engagement photos here. We were given a volunteer and he knew so much historical information about the planes it made the process even cooler . If your a history buff or just like photos this a great place to go!

breana mieszanek

I went to the museum with my two daughters, 4 and 9 years old. The facility is new & well maintained. The employees are friendly and helpful. There are planes to view up close and hands-on exhibits!

Lester McNeely

We have been to aviation museums all around the country. This one is superb in every way. It's especially strong on the learning and educational aspects of flight. Good! Go!

David O

A great museum with lots of historic planes. The docents give great tours and can tailor them to your group's age or interests. Many of the planes still work and are still flown. You can even pay to fly on some of them, like the B-17. The demonstrations/experiments are well done and demonstrates basic flight principals.

Chris Peden

So much cool history and a great venue for a gala or larger celebration.

Jerone Vinox

would have been better if the staffs know little bit about how to use those flight simulator. If you try to figure out your self they will come and tell you your time is up. $15 for using flight simulator for 5 minutes. its a small museum. Don't have much activities for kids to come there. Also most flight museums have at least few aircrafts available for us to sit and feel. This one is just to take a look at the aircrafts from outside.

Paul Lock

Great place. Wonderful outreach to the community. Only 4 star because I miss the original Galveston location.

Bill Frame

The aircraft have a lot of connections to my life, and it's close enough to the house, I could walk to it.

Kent Albert

Very Awesome!!! Can't wait to go again...

Mya Rose

Love it, so interesting to see the incredible planes totally recommend!

Ian Curnow

Fantastic board room for our PHI Air Medical meeting. Lunch was excellent.

Bryan W

This is a very nice museum on aviation here in the Houston area. Admission prices are very reasonable for both adults and children. The building is very nice and they have a very nice collection of aircraft, including war planes and helicopters. The interactive lessons on the physics of flying is very nice. Probably a little too advanced for my 3 year old but my 8 year old enjoyed that part of it. Staff is very friendly.

Kenny Collins

Great facility. Flight simulator is a must if you visit. They also offer rides on some vintage aircraft at reasonable prices.

Rosalie Brooks Atkins

Great place to take kids.

Ken Oliver

I was so pleased to see all of the new items they have for children. I just love the vintage air craft. Excellent place to take your family.

Yoshua Rodriguez

Great variety of aircraft for the small selection. I particularly enjoy the ties to Texas and the added STEM information.

Lore F

This museum is wonderful! We went on a tour recently, and it was incredible to hear the history of aircraft, and get to see the aircraft in person. The museum is huge, so put your walking shoes on! The tour guides (both that we had were veterans) are extremely knowledgable, and can answer any questions you or your family members come up with. We were greeted immediately, and the staff is extremely friendly. I will say that taking a child under the age of 4 is probably not a good idea if you are doing the tour, unless you go sans tour guide, and see only the interactive parts as it can get overwhelmingly long for them. I had my 2 year old with me, and he was overjoyed to see the large planes, and get to play with the interactive museum pieces; however, he was quite restless on the longer more informational portions of the tour. They also have a gift shop that is filled with aircraft memorabilia, from baby pilot onesies to diecast replicas, they have something for every aged air plane lover to enjoy. This is a museum that is a must for anyone who is interested in planes.

Eric Schell

Extremely organized display. I was very impressed with the elegance and amount of material they had on display, such as the historical descriptions to the various types of aircraft in the hangers. The facility was very clean and fancy. The staff were very friendly and many of them are very knowledgeable on the subject matter and were more than happy to teach you more about anything that interested you. Very well worth the money. They even offered a AAA discount so it was $12 per adult. We ended up staying well over 2 hours. Definitely would recommend for anyone! They have educational displays for those that aren't experts in aviation and even interactive displays along with the explanations.

Sondra Harrison

The people are nice and there are great things on display

Matt Martin

Very nice museum! Lots of flight history and great displays of vintage aircraft.

Gregg Thacker

Very interesting place with a nice Gift Shop.

Adam H

Excellent flight museum. Great staff and wonderful attractions not found elsewhere! I mean, come on, how cool is flying in a B17! Yes please!

Vincent De Barros

Amazing Museum!!! I highly recommend people to go here.

Annie Rupani

What an incredible museum fun for kids and adults alike. There's something for everyone, whether you're more tactile and want to interact with exhibits, or a history buff who wants to explore the journey of each plane, this museum has a lot to offer in knowledge and fun!

Tim Weyandt

Great place! All the restored planes are in flyable condition!

David Gabor

Its a great time if you're into aviation history or have younger ones with you. Would like to visit again in the future.

Jeff Wood

This place is awesome. I would bring every student pilot here if we lived in the area. A must see for all aviation enthusiasts.

David Pior

Nice Museum. They had both steermans out giving rides today.

Jesse Bolduc

Was a great experience to see all those historic planes.

T Todd

Fascinating! A great mix of self-guided and interactive exhibits. We had kids with us ranging from 6 to 13 and everyone enjoyed it and learned a lot! The staff are exceptional. We spoke to several and they were all engaging and eager to answer our questions.

Rob Dorman

Had a first class tour of this venue. Need to speak with management about Transportation services that Sterling Luxury Transport can provide.

Casandra George

Absolutely a must do for everyone. We enjoyed reading about the planes & the training these pioneers of flight endured. Fun for all ages, even us old folks of 50

Sarah Medearis

This facility is top-notch. New, beautiful, clean, and so informative! Great activities and education for all ages. Reserve at least two or three hours for everything

Cathy Roberts

This is a fantastic museum. Absolutely beautiful vintage aircraft. The displays are clean, crisp and on target. There are so many photos that just add to your delights. Loads of fun hands on stuff for children, too. Enjoy!

Andriy Bezpalko

If you’re into flying or planes in general this is a great place to go. Many different types of planes and helicopters, you can learn so much about the Houston aviation industry, and how it got to where it is today. All the planes are in great shape, and some are even flight worthy! They have a really interesting Soviet plane!

Leo G.

Very nice location friendly staff. Interactive displays great for all ages. There is a set fee to visit. It's worth it.

Steven Spruell

Well put together, much to see and do.

Cassandra Davila

Great little museum unfortunately after looking at two hangars there's not much for kids and it's a bit expensive.

Sara Henderson

The Lone Star Flight Museum moved from Galveston, TX about a year and a half ago. Hurricane Harvey and other storms had done about $18M in damage to the Galveston location. Those storms have been to your benefit because the new museum is OUTSTANDING. Now located on Ellington Field, very near the NASA facilities, the museum is well worth a few hours of your time. The museum does have very knowledgeable dolcents who can explain the history and functionality of the 24+ aircraft, in the very large new hanger. These are pristinely well maintained static displays and most of the aircraft are flyable. Flights are available to book. The museum does have other aviation artifacts and flight simulators. If you're visiting NASA, stop at the Loan Star Flight Museum as well. Book tickets on line.

Richard Foisner

What an interesting, fun, and educational place. Top notch flight museum with dozens of planes to see. Very big facility, with lots of walking, plan accordingly. Can take 2 to four hours to see the whole place, just depends on how much you want to see.

Rusty Allen

I enjoyed the new location. Yes, they have been at the current location for a few years but it is very much an upgrade. More hanger space for displaying the aircraft but also there is space for classrooms and media presentations. Great for groups or a single person wandering around.

Nick Madincea

The Smithsonian of the South! Holy smokes, this place is incredible. You have to come check it out. The planes are perfectly restored and all in flying condition. The Flight academy, ALC, and drone exhibit are all very cool modern additions.

Davorin Andric

Well maintained facility with lots of planes. Volunteers were really helpful and provided a lot of information on certain planes. I personally loved flight mechanics hands-on section

Jake Page

This new location has 2 hangers full of functional aircraft, with very knowledgeable staff who were delighted to let me ask numerous questions. STEM interactive educational sections are perfect for teaching anyone who wants to learn, good for children and adults alike.

Siddhartha Jain

Great place for aviation enthusiasts. Kids can learn some of the physics concepts quite fast.....

Teresa Zurbrugg

Totally awesome. Could have spent all day there. I'll definitely be going back.

Paula Collie-Dement

Absolutely amazing; with the old location being lost to Hurricane Ike this new museum is wonderful! It is very interactive for school age kids & would be a great interactive field trip to learn about the history of & how planes operate. The center has activities set up for pre during & post educational STEM activities. Be sure to add it to your itinerary with school or family!!

Sheeyam Shellvacumar

Informative Museum. Great Attraction in Houston area for the plane lovers. Most the flights in the hangers can still fly. Staff is friendly and well maintained. Must visit in Houston.

Mary Ellis

This is the third time taking my grandson to the Flight Museum, and it gets more meaningful each time. The volunteer we met was incredibly knowledgeable and it added to the learning experience. The Robonauts were giving demos and that was terrific too.

Frieda Wiley

For a smaller flight museum, I felt that this museum did a lot with less space. There’s a wide variety of planes to look at, and there are some plane engines as well. Unlike other flight museums, the Lonestar flight museum has some interactive exhibits including a simulated flight room. They also have special activities including demonstrations and flyovers.

Tomo Tomo

Nice and clean. Special price on Mondays.

Eddie Rivera

Nice museum..price was great..excellent exhibits

j c

I was lucky enough to visit when the Mustang car show was going on. The old war planes were amazing an to see them flying over head was awesome. Large parking lot.

D McC

Nice museum but a bit pricey.

Dennis Sherman

Large variety of vintage aircraft mostly flying condition. Huge Hall of Fame area. Plenty of open spaces. Very friendly staff.

Matt Wygle

Had a great time. Not as big as I thought, but Mondays in the summer is $5. My kids that had no interest in planes asked hundreds of questions. I love this place. The B17 was my favorite.

detric dotson

This place is awesome, even for people who aren't interested in planes and aviation.

Partially Human

Firat time here and I enjoyed it. I dont know anything about planes,so it was really interesting and standing next to them was even better. Will come here again with my family

David Avila

Fantastic museum that’s perfect for aviation fans and every member of the family. The Texas Aviation Hall of Fame, the state of the art Aviation Learning Center, and of course the flying collection are just a few of the highlights of this museum.

Devon Tucker

Great to see so many vintage warbirds that are still airworthy. The new building is beautiful and has a vintage modern look .

Darminicus Zartan

A great place for a homeschool lesson. So much information about planes and how they work

William Malpass

Incredible field experience for my school group at the aviation learning center! An amazing experience for young and old alike.

yedid alvarez

Wonderful place, we all enjoyed

Dennie Heije

Highly recommended museum for all ages. Children can learn about the science behind flying in an interactive way (including flight simulators), they have a large collection of historical aircrafts, interesting exhibits about aircraft history in Texas - plus in the weekends they fly some of their historical aircrafts. You can watch them taxi and take off, or you can buy a ticket for a unique opportunity to fly IN a historical aircraft. I flew in the B-25 bomber last weekend, an experience I'll never forget. The staff explains all there is to know and will make sure you get the most out of the flight.

John Williams

Very nice displays of aircraft, and people working there are helpful and friendly. Will definitely go back again.

Linda

Awesome planes. Kids loved it.

Umauree Taylor

Had a VERY gr8 experience there and I'll go again and this time take my kids 2 the museum and see what they're experience will be like

Mike Horn

One of the best air museums that I've visited. Excellent display of rebuilt WWII warbirds and a extensive gallery covering the history of flight. Also, there is a really slick STEM oriented display explaining the basics of aerodynamics. Big thumbs up for this experience.

Andrew Delpha

This museum is great. My boys loved it. In addition to the various planes on display, they have a hands on area where kids can learn about how planes fly. Also had a neat ticketed exhibit where kids learn how to make a flight plan, go over a pre flight check list, and sit in a plane and move the controls to see how that moves the flaps.

Jennifer Allensworth

Such a cool place with lots to do and many learning opportunities for the kids. We will be back and I highly recommend

Kevin Swicegood

Great place to see great planes and great history.

Daniel

The museum has been completely revamped since it's move from Galveston. It looks amazing. Very clean and open exhibits allow you to walk among some of the coolest aircraft you could ever see in person. The rotating exhibits also allow for a different experience every time and the flight academy let's kids 10 and up try flight simulators and even do a flight check in a real plane all at no extra cost. Can't wait to come back.

Rhonda Gilezane

Fairly new, extremely clean. Docents are volunteers and were all very knowledgeable. Could easily spend an entire day between the tour and exhibits.

Albert Saenz

The aircraft on display are fantastic. Lots of history. Great exhibits and hands - on activities. Nice souvenir shop. Clean and organized museum. Great aviation learning center and flight academy. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. We've seen multiple aircraft taxi, take off and land. Just a great place.

Sean Davenport

Really nice air museum. I have been to many across the country and there are a few unique aircraft here. I like how the aircraft are kept in operation and I bet most hold an airworthiness certificate...at lease a special.

Erwin Gaskamp

Nice facility. A little short on interestig aircraft on display. Nevertheless, a good place for an afternoon with the family (girl's interest might not be too high)

E. Ruiz Jr.

Wow, what a cool place for plane buffs! Impressive collection of aircraft all presented in immaculate form and setting as this museum is brand new! Awesome addition to the area with NASA just down the highway.

Jennifer Long

Great place to spend a couple hours with the whole family. Restrooms are clean with changing tables and there's a snack room with tables and vending machines but I'd suggest packing some sandwiches and snacks from home for meals. The membership pays for itself if you go twice a year, and then you can get a discount at the gift shop as well. The planes, volunteers, and staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Check out their event calendar for some fun, inexpensive family outings.

Renee & Jeremy Wiederspahn

Great facilities and friendly staff! Hosted our mustang club of America event this weekend and were great hosts.

Alan Moberg

They have a great collection of WWII flight equipment. They have provided documents to help identify what you are seeing.

Angela Batts

Great place. We had a lot of fun. Plan on making a day of it. Lots to see and read about. Very informative. Staff was very helpful. Prices are quite reasonable.

David McRoberts

Had a brilliant time. Planes are very well displayed and laid out. Bonus, was that it was the Mustang Club of America annual show. Fantastic selection of planes AND cars.

Andrew Perka

One of the very best aviation museums in the US. The airplanes here are living examples of aviation history. The hands-on theory of flight exhibits are the best I've seen in any museum and are great for kids.

Shawnn Blake

They have a good variety of aircraft on display and their staff were quite friendly and knowledgeable.

Pamela McDonald

Really great guides! Special thanks to Don for acting like Jimmie Dolittle and Jim for the tour! Such fun to learn about WWII history!

Lon Young

This place is awesome! I attended a wedding reception here and it might be the only reception I've attended that the men enjoyed as much as the women! It easily accommodated entertainment with a classy environment. Not only does it have lots of airplanes, motors, propellers, etc... It also has great, interactive displays. And patrons are allowed to get really close to many of the airplanes. The staff were very welcoming and helpful.

W F

I believe this is the one they moved up from Galveston. Really nice museum and merchandise store.
