It's not Smithsonian quality. Many mannequins and display cases look like hand-me-downs. But what they lack in pizazz, they make up for in volume and history. The admission fee is low--and I rarely say that. If you are really interested in reading everything, you could easily spend the whole day here. I ended up spending an hour and a half. Enjoyed the curator as well.

Joseph Raymond Sr

Small, privately funded look into aviation history, specifically military aviation. Loved visiting and seeing this snapshot of history. Took the kids and they like it as well.

Mr. Tim

I had a good time. Great place for families.

Luis Tijerina

Hidden gem. Go visit today.

This museum has tons of historical artifacts focused on San Antonio's rich aviation history! And a great place to learn about aircrafts.

Jessica Saenz

Great tour guide. So informative. I didn't realize the Stinson family was played such an important role in flight history around the world. This museum has chairs to sit during the presentation or breaks along the tour. There are bathrooms available and a gift shop. I highly recommend this place. This is a museum. There are fragile items, displays, aircraft etc. So please keep a watchful eye on your children. There is free parking on site. The museum building is an old aircraft hangar so it is cold in the winter and extremely hot in the summer. So choose your visit date accordingly. I'd also recommend eating at the Big Bib down the street inside Stinson Airport.

I showed up during closed times, but a peek in the hangar window revealed a surprising collection of artifacts on display. I should come back and see the rest... And from better angles!

Angela DeJano

Martin Hernandez

(Translated by Google) A piece of history in a small hangar. It is a broad exhibition, just lacks a little more order. There is a mention to the 201 squadron of Mexico. (Original) Un pedazo de historia en un pequeño hangar. Es una exhibicion amplia, solo le falta un poco mas de orden. Hay una mención al escuadrón 201 de Mexico.

John Meyers

Has some interesting displays but needs work on the building and displays

Sabrina Campos

Took my kids and they loved it

Rik Cruz

A nice little aviation museum hidden at the Stinson airfield. Place is open to the air and can get hot during certain parts of the day.

Rory Howell

A great and fun time.

Rosemary Corey

Interesting place. Great exhibits but operating on a shoestring. Well worth your time though

Bruce Boyes

Lots of models and replicas. Plus a lot of memorabilia, uniforms, etc going back to the Great War

Pat Edinger

An eclectic museum featuring a lot of information about a lot of things. Not sure I would rate it with the best I have seen but for the location and budget, I think it was well worth the visit. Quite a few interesting displays and most of the stuff had good description cards and it was easy to navigate. Staff was friendly and helpful and it is definitely handicap accessible all being on one level with a concrete floor. The outside aircraft were in miserable shape but - that goes with the elements.

Rob Rod

Great place to take the kids, very very fair priced. Make sure to ask for the owner Mr. Tosh, he is great to talk to about the history

Jennifer Halfhill

So the building is an old hangar. It’s a bit dirty & dusty - it’s no Smithsonian. BUT, this is clearly a labor of love. Mr. Tosh & his volunteers run an excellent local museum. This is an important nod to the role of & connections with SA has in relation to (military) aviation. There’s a small space with chairs in which a few people can view a historic speech JFK gave in Texas the day before the tragedy in Dallas. This alone is worth the visit. There are exhibits & planes kids can climb on & in. My students loved it.

Maddie Long

The man who greeted us (Pete Jones), was really a great way to be greeted. There were some cats and it smelled bad but you don't really notice. Very entertaining experience and very cheap. Be sure to ask as many questions as possible.
