WW II Aircraft in flying condition and fly every other weekend on the other side of Paine Field. Japanese, British, American, German and Russian aircraft on display and fly on selected weekends. If you like old aircraft, there is Nothing to dislike about this museum. It does NOT have a snack bar.
Historic Flight Foundation is really unique amongst airplane museums. Where else can you walk right up to so many classic airplanes kept in tip-top shape with no ropes? The founder of the museum is frequently on-site and is a friendly guy answering questions about his many flights in the F7F Tigercat, MIG-29 (which is now on the other side of Paine Field at the Flying Heritage Collection), B-25 and others.It's great to stop by here, Flying Heritage Collection and the Museum of Flight Restoration Center to make a day trip of it. All are within a few miles of each other around Paine Field. Historic Flight Foundation also holds many events throughout the year - talks on historic aviation, air shows/fly-ins, rides in classic war birds. Definitely worth subscribing to their newsletter and dropping in whenever possible.
Great planes and musuem, immacualte, restored, aircraft that tell timelss stories and they all are able to fly.Amazing P51 Mustang that you can get up close and see.
This museum is not very large, but they have some beautifully restored vintage aircraft, mostly from WWII. Unlike most museums you can walk right up to these birds and touch them, walk under them and closely view them from all angles. Several birds are out on the tarmac on airport property so you have to be escorted by museum staff to see them. I was able to climb into some of the planes, what a thrill that was!If you are visiting the Everett, WA area and you're an aircraft buff, don't miss this experience.
I loved this tour which brought back all the memories of early travels on my favorite airplane the 747. Love the tour, museum and the Boeing store that had great prices and hard to find memorabilia.
Better consider being there.The HFF guys go all-out. From having WWII reenactors paired up w/ US Army Rangers to commemorate D-Day to hosting the world's only flying B-29, you'll be impressed.
If you're a history buff this is a pretty cool visit. I got to look into a WWII Bomber that was a definite highlight.
Great Tour. I reccommend this tour to all my friends. We even went back the next day to do the Gallery in the basement of the building.
Love going to see the of all ages & watch them fly. Love going to their flight weekend shows at the beginning & end of summer.
huge facility and great viewing and imaging options. Place has historical sites related aircraft manufacturing and wood plants. Traffic is organized but a visit to space will face slow traffic due to constructions near the space needle.
