This place was super clean and just so cool! We loved learning about all of the aircrafts and doing the activities. The rides are closed right now, but we plan on coming back when they are up and running. Must-do experience. If you're a history buff, I highly recommend the FREE tour guide. Those guys are amazing.
Been there precovid and today. Friendly, with all necessary precautions and fun for kids. Looking forward for rides to open
Amazing experience! So much to see and do. The range of aircraft is impressive. The Sopwith Camel, Wood wire and canvas up to the SR-71 exotic titanium and mach three speed. The women in Air & Space is very well done. From Harriet Quimb, and Amelia Earhart, right up to Mae Jemison. The volunteers working on restoration projects are highly skilled trades people who are a joy to watch. The entire museum is very clean and well maintained. They staff are knowledgeable and friendly.
Wry nice place and my kids really enjoy the airplanes. It is very friendly place. Loved it.
My family had a fantastic time here yesterday! We drove down from the Lansing-area and it was well worth the trip. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The planes are amazing, and there is a good selection to peruse. My toddlers got really excited about seeing planes landing and taking off from the nearby airport, and there is great seating to watch the planes. I really enjoyed the aerospace section, as space exploration has always fascinated me. Iron Man, C3PO, and R2D2 even make an appearance (perhaps a glimpse of the future). All-in-all, there is something for everyone here, and I highly recommend making a day centered around time at the Air Zoo!
Great air museum with plenty of interesting exhibits and many activities for kids. When I visited recently, several of the kid-focused exhibits and rides were closed due to Covid. As for the aircraft themselves, there is a pretty wide selection of craft, from WW1 era to the modern age, including an SR-71 Trainer which is great to get up close to. There is a main exhibit area, a WW2 area, and a space area. While it isn t quite on the same tier as museums like the Smithsonian and the USAF Museum, it is still a great way to spend a few hours.
We brought our daughter here a while ago as a field trip. I was very impressed with the work that has been invested in these aircraft. In my opinion, this museum rivals that of the top aviation museums in the nation. There's so much to learn here. I would love to make the trip back to visit some day. Highly recommend!
This place was great. Stopped with my Dad not knowing what to expect and we were both blown away. Nice variety of airplanes and we were able to spend several hours there. Anyone interested in aviation or history would have a good time. Staff were nice and Greg in particular was awesome. He was extremely knowledgeable and his passion for aviation and the exhibits was infectious. Planning to return in the future.
So glad I am able to volunteer at the AirZoo. Fun place!
Excellent museum! My family thoroughly enjoyed visiting this museum, and we're overwhelmed at the amount of air and space exhibits. Highly recommend!
Added- Yes we did see all the buildings and the F117. Super cool. Wayne was an excellent host in the restoration building!
