My son and I really enjoyed this place. The planes were in great shape and well taken care of and you could enter a couple of them. Leone was an amazing guide and Frank was a great simulator instructor. If we go back to the area, we will be sure to visit again.
The pleasure was in three parts. The conversations, stories and warmth of the volunteers before the flight were welcomed and interesting. The flight in this vintage plane over Long Island was long over due and memorable. Thanks, Dave. The after-flight experience was the museum, a class collection of aviation material. Treat yourself. Go. Donate.
It’s a nice museum. The volunteer tour guides are friendly and professional. The collection is nice. The kids like playing on the displays.
I have always passed this museum but never went in. Today I finally went to the museum. It was such an amazing experience. From the moment I stepped into the place all the tour guides were so welcoming and informative. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and I learned so much. There are many planes that are on display that still fly today!
One of the most unique and interesting Air Force museum I visited. It’s located right next to an airport as EVERY plane exhibited can fly. Staffs are passionate and are very willing to tell you all about it.
You are allowed to get hands on some older generations of aircrafts and turrets.
Many libraries provide free entrance for this museum.
We had a tour by Steven. A wonderful veteran of service and an amazing American. We recommend this museum highly. Absolutely one of a kind.
What a great experience! This place is incredible if you're interested in the planes from the past.
Best aviation experience ever! Our tour guide was awesome and I felt the passion he had for aviation. To learn about Grumman and the role the women played during WW2 was an eye opener, as this is not taught in school, of which should be. An experience I will never forget, as an aviation enthusiast it was a dream come true.
