My daughter's "happy place" is anywhere she can see aircraft. While on a recent pass through the area she saw the grissom air museum and requested that we visit again sometime soon. Today was that day. One detail that we liked is that the self-guiding walking tour outside not only mentions the particular kind of aircraft you are viewing and some interesting facts about it, but says interesting facts, history, and so on about THAT PARTICULAR aircraft. It makes it much more personal. A GREAT venue for anyone who values and appreciates American military aircraft. I look forward to seeing how it evolves over time.

Happened to be passing by on US 31, saw the aircraft displays, did a quick 180 at the next intersection and visited the museum for a short visit. Spoke at length with volunteer John, a 40 year USAF vet. He was charming and a wealth of information. Checked out all the various aircraft on display. All but a couple were in really good condition with very informative plaques by each aircraft. Wish I had more time to spend inside. Well worth the effort. Admission fees were very reasonable.

Perfect for a family outing. The kids loved the real life cockpits you can enter for a picture. The Huey helicopter and F4 phantom were their favorites. They have a display of a jet engine cut open to see how it works. To see a F14 tomcat was stunning. They also have an sr 71 blackbird drone, F4 phantom, and refueling jets.

Awesome little museum. Plenty of historically significant aircraft that you can walk right up to. The gentleman working the entrance was very welcoming.
