We went on a Saturday so it was busy but not packed or crowded. Even if you dont go inside, theres still plans parked outside to look at. Inside is amazing and very packed with all kinds of airplanes. My 2 yr old loved it. We will def go again.

Such an amazing place! Everything from the early days to space exploration, and organized by Era. We were there for almost 5 hours and saw maybe 1/3rd of what they had to offer.

Absolutely the best Air Force museum in the country, plan spending at least half a day here if you just want to do a casual walk thru everything.

This is such an amazing gift shop. The staff has done an amazing job picking out items to be sold here. From plane replicas to books, stickers & patches to toy models, they have all types of things. By purchasing these items, it helps support the museum. I would recommend you purchase at least something small to support the free-admission museum.Tip: this is a wonderful place to buy souvenirs for someone who may not have made it to the museum!

If you have visited the National Museum of the US Air Force- I highly recommend visiting their gift and memorabilia shop. It has a lot of good items, clothing, and other sorts of memorabilia- from mugs to magnets, model sets and space themed items that you can buy from the shop- and also they have a wide variety of pins, shirts and hats and other things to look at. They might be a little expensive- but it is well worth taking a look if you have the time.

Service was great! Its a fast food place though, so dont expect them to get your order right 100% of the time.

Awesome gift shop! Relevant merchandise but some is a bit pricey, but it is the Air Force Museum guys. A portion of the money goes to support the Museum itself. Our aviation heritage is worth it. Bought way too much and I have a flat wallet to prove it! Just joking, would have and wanted to buy more. My brain(wife) brought me to my senses lol.

This place is simply amazing.... Staff is so friendly and there is so much to see. Great family stop, lots of walking but plenty of rest stops. Being able to actually explore planes was amazing being one of those folks who has never been on a plane. Two thumbs up for family fun and just for a casual day adventure.

Review №23

I enjoyed looking at all the planes. That part was awesome. What wasnt awesome? you ask: the price of the stimulation rides....The stimulation rides range from $8/person-$10/person-$16/personREALLY? I think you should lower the price a little. You might get more people to want to get on the these rides.

Air Force and other veterans, military history and aviation buffs, and anybody interested in our countrys space program will find this museum well worth a days visit, perhaps more than one day.

Review №28

Such an amazing place! If you like planes and history then you will be happy! Plan to be there for at least four to five hours and do a whole lot of walking but it is really worth it. They do have a limited number of scooters and wheelchairs available, free of charge, first come first serve basis. Best of all, its free! At least think about leaving a donation. They do have a giant screen theater that has an admission price. They also have two cafes for food.

The gift shop was a lot of fun to browse thru. There are Air Force and plane shirts, bomber jackets, mugs, hats, and plenty of kids toys, jackets, and costumes. All of the colorful merchandise makes the shop eyecatching and fun to check out. Its right by the entrance so make sure to stop by on your way out! Its fully wheelchair accessible too.

We planned on a day trip and only got thru 1/4 of the fantastic museum. Flight/Air Force history from the Wright Bros. thru WWI, WWII, Philippines, Korea,Vietnam, The Cold War and on to Space. We definitely need to plan on a few more trips to the museum. And, dont forget to stroll through the Memorial Park. A lovely day!

The experience itself was great. But the pre made foods were all out of date. We had checked all of them and they all had been it least 9 days out of expiration.

Review №35

This gift shop is run by the Air Force Museum Foundation so all the profits go back into supporting the museum. Something for everyone, wide range of prices(postcards were 25¢-hard to beat that!). Shelves and displays were well stocked, and being refilled over the course of the day. Cashiers were friendly and helpful, even after a long day dealing with elementary children from multiple school trips.

Huge variety of books, souvenirs, models, and collectables, most reasonably priced and a nice, helpful staff to boot. Needed more time, but probably a good thing I didnt have it because I would have spent way too much money. 😊

The Museum itself is very awesome. The shop is nice too but a little bit expensive. I get that the money will go towards the museum but some things are just too expensive.At my first visit there they had one of the motorcycles from the show American Chopper there for display. Awesome piece of work.

You must devote at least an hour here... yes at THIS gift shop! You will see firsthand, a plethora of military & aviation history become available at your fingertips. From books, to models, to shirts, posters, videos and yes a copious array of stuff for kiddos. Be sure to bring your wallet.I always told my two boys to behave in the museum, so u can choose something from the gift shop (touching exhibits only with your eyes).

Review №54

Free admission! Very nice military aviation museum. This place is huge - it will take all day to try to see everything. Wear your walking shoes. Nice place to visit when its rainy or too hot outside or too cold. They just opened a new fourth hanger. All aspects of military aviation from the Wright brothers to Stealth Bombers. There is a cafeteria with reasonable food at reasonable prices. Also an IMAX theatre. There are simulators to ride at additional cost. I really liked the Presidential aircraft display. You are able to walk through historic Air Force One aircraft! There are four examples from the 40s to the 80s. (FYI - there is a size restriction on these walk through displays and they are not handicap accessible due to the historical nature of the aircraft) The Space Shuttle on display is handicap and wheel chair accessible! I have been visiting this place a handful of times for 30 years and it keeps getting better each time.

Always the best place to learn about the air force from beginning of Wright brothers, WW1, WW2, to moden fighters. It opens 7 days a week and admission is free. A great place to bring your family and spend a weekend day.

This place is amazing! So glad we decided to check it out. Made it a day trip with our 14yr old grandson and he was awed with it all. Dont be in hurry or youll miss some very interesting stories of history and valor.

Review №59

Its alright, rather small for the amount of air novelties that could be sold. Mostly apparel and kids toys. It would be nice to see some more collectable or unique items. Hard to complain about such a small aspect of the museum when the museum itself is outstanding.

Jo

Great place to visit, and may have bought something, but saw the over priced goods and didnt feel like being taken advantage of like that. Haha ;p although the (free) tour itself was probably worth $10-$15 bucks, so it wouldnt be that bad.
