1. Rantoul, Illinois. The Octave Chanute Aerospace Museum You can taxi
right up to this one, and park just a few dozen feet away from an F-14 Tomcat. (Sadly, when we were there last month they had the back door locked, so we had to walk around to the front of the building. This is a giant hangar, so that was no small feat, with kids in tow...) See it at: http://www.aeromuseum.org/ 2. Topeka, Kansas. Combat Air Museum. Ditto above. Another great museum located on the old Forbes Field air base. See it at http://www.combatairmuseum.org/ 3. Greenfield Iowa. Iowa Aviation Museum and Hall of Fame. Small, but very good. See it at http://www.flyingmuseum.com/ 4. Ottumwa, Iowa. Airpower Museum and Antique Aircraft Association. This is on a small, private, grass strip which is home to the most amazing annual fly-in every summer. Call ahead for permission to land. See it at http://www.aaa-apm.org/ . 5. Oshkosh, WI. EAA Airventure Museum. This one is only "sort of" accessible by air. When I flew in during the winter in '95, I had to park on the opposite side of the airport (miles away) at Basler, and they drove us over to the museum. See it at http://www.airventuremuseum.org/. Can you add any more to this list? Kansas City, MO (MKC) Airline History Museum http://www.airlinehistorymuseum.com/ |
