Everything you could want in a general aviation museum with an emphasis on the home builder and aviation history of home building. Also a great warbirds display
Once a summer, we are fortunate enough to have our skies full of planes. The stunt planes, the historic planes, the funny shaped planes. The street are busy with visitors from all over the world. What a treat. What a special event and how lucky we are that it is in Oshkosh. The EAA does such a nice job with Air Venture. There is something at the EAA grounds for everyone. The museum is a perfect example of history in aviation through the years. Hands on kiddie area makes it family friendly.
I guess it all depends in how many air adventure attractions one knows. This is the only place I have visited within this category so to me it was great, excellent indeed and i recommend visitors to pay them a visit. I come here every 5 years for an international activity and the air show is the best I have ever seen. One of the great things about this particular place is that there is no age limit, anyone can enjoy the air museum at all times.
Just came to look around and enjoyed it a lot. Think at the end of July is the EAA convention and this airport is one of the busiest in the world at that time of year.
I have been to this museum multiple times since I was 11 years old. I loved it then and love it even more now. My parents and I are pilots, so we obviously take more interest to some things than others, but I have taken non-aviation friends here, and they loved it too! There's so much history, and such amazing stories to hear. The museum itself is well designed, and full of fun surprises!
This museum is probably the best aviation museum in the3 world, better than the Smithsonian (at least according to the locals). If visiting, make sure you allow plenty of time, especially if visiting during AirVenture
This is a world class aircraft museum.We live in the area and visit frequently. It is my grandchildren's favorite place to visit (mine, too.)One tip for you - if you have several in your family or if you plan to visit twice per year, the family membership is the way to go at only $50 per year ($40 for a single.) The membership works at a lot of other museums across the country, too.

I went here a couple years ago. It was fantastic. I enjoyed every minute of it. There was a military Mash unit display that was cool.
Its really amazing ! It was a dream to come true. 3 days seeing what I love ! Airplanes coming from all over the country,,
Great place to go to learn and see about aviation. Plan on spending some time to take it all in. Gets crowded around EAA yearly fly in. But if you haven't been there for that the air shows are a must to see as well!
