I was TRULY blown away by the contents of this museum. From start to finish, our visit was awesome, everyone had a positive attitude, was knowledge and helpful.

The students were very engaged. It helped make what we were learning in class more "real" for them. It helped them see how all our learning outcomes for flight are applied to the building or aircraft
