Incredible facility, displays, and people! I had never heard of this museum, but luckily found it by Google map surfing during a layover in Denver. Awesome range of vintage aircraft in incredible condition, though the majority of the airframes no longer had their engines. I love the Century Series fighters, so stumbling upon this place that has them all was a dream come true. In addition to the rockets and aircraft (which includes ordinance!), there are many special displays that you will only see at a really historic museum, such as a huge displays of uniforms, flight suits, helmets, nose art, etc.! The best thing I experienced at the museum, however, was the staff -- which included a number of veterans of the Air Force. Whether they were pilots or not, they gave you the low down on what you were looking at. It was a pleasure to speak with them and I really wished I could just hang out and probe them for stories of their service. If you dig military aviation, this is an absolute must-do on your next trip to Denver.

This is a great collection of planes, everything from a hang glider to a B1 bomber, and they have a collection of uniforms. The museum is in the largest hangar I have ever seen, and based on the massive doors at one end of the hangar I would guess it dates to World War II. The facility is very modern and clean. The collection rivals the US Air Force Museum in Ohio and bests the Frontiers of Flight in Dallas, a Smithsonian annex museum.

What an amazing space! We attended a fashion show but also had an opportunity to see the DaVinci exhibit which is very well done! The space definitely has an older feel to it but it's overall a wonderful venue.
