What a great experience!! I went there with my parents and took my 2 year old daughter who loves airplanes. They have an amazing collection of planes, helicopters, and other aviation related items. The staff that works in the hangars are very knowledgeable and are great to talk to, one was even nice enough to give my daughter a toy airplane! Everything was very clean and well maintained, including the bathrooms. I did appreciate the fact they provide changing tables in the male bathrooms. The food at the restaurant is pretty good, albeit a little pricey. We had burgers and chicken strips, and unless you're a huge eater, split a fry order, it's a huge basket. I do plan on going back and taking the family again, especially to get the tour of the boneyard.

Fantastic staff, great fun visiting all the exhibits. Vending machines are much more reasonable than a zoo , only like 2$. Restrooms are well maintained, many present all over with access to water. Admission isn't bad and the shirts are fantastic quality within shop. Flight grill was about what you would expect any normal burger joint to be, but drinks are pricey. Food was FANTASTIC though, incredibly delicious and I got it in under 5 minutes. Quicker than subway honestly, and much tastier.

This is a fantastic place to learn about aircraft, history, space exploration, and more. There are interactive displays geared toward children as well as detailed aviation information for the most highly educated military history buff. This museum is also a valuable repository for aviation history documentation and artifacts. You'll need several hours or severasl visits if you want to see everything in detail (bring water and a hat, as much of the museum is outside), though you could do a shorter, more superficial (but still fun and educational) tour for those too young to have the patience for the whole thing! They do have a "treasure hunt" for children, so they can watch out for particular air craft. The docents are kind, polite, and well informed, and many have their own personal stories of serving with these aircraft.

So cool. The planes we so big and amazing. My favorite part of it all was the NASA or space area was. I love space always have always will. NASA is my thing so that was cool.

I took my boys here to get out of the Tucson heat...unfortunately they don't have air conditioning, just swamp coolers! We had a great time, we were probably there for 3-4 hours and I had to drag the kids away! There is so much to see and the people volunteering are very nice and patient with kids! I had not been in years, but used to go more often when we lived closer, I just took the kids to the Space building for the first time on this visit though and the kids loved it in there! There is a simulator they got to play on that they couldn't get enough of! They also have tons of kids activities during the month all year long, which I never knew! (I believe events/activities can be found on their website). We thought about grabbing a snack/small bite to eat at the cafe, but the menu was not snack prices. I know the museum probably doesn't have a large amount of funding, so I'm not complaining, I still think it's an amazing place to visit, especially with kids, in the Tucson area.
