  The tram tour was excellent...great tour guide, great info. I took both the highlights tour and WWII tour (Bldg 3)...all superb. A must visit for anyone with interest in aviation!

  The 390th Bomb Group Memorial was an interesting addition to the World War II museum information. If planes are what you like, check this place out.

  We are from San Diego and both spent our careers in aerospace so we were intrigued by the museum and seeing all the aircraft on display, especially the boneyard tour. We arrived at 10 minutes before 9 and there was already a line to get in. We had wanted to take the 10 a.m. boneyard tour, but by the time we reached the ticket office, it was sold out so we bought tickets for the 11:30 tour. That worked out better because we had a good 2 1/2 hours to tour the hangers and wander around the field where hundreds of aircraft are parked. Good signage so you knew the history of whatever was on display and the volunteer staff were fabulous. Very friendly, knowledgeable. They greeted visitors as they entered the hanger and made themselves available to answer any questions we had. I highly recommend spending time at this museum.

  I had heard about this museum from a friend and decided to check it out. Amazing gem and surprised to find it in southern Arizona, but after hearing from one of the guides why it was there it made sense. This facility has a number of indoor exhibits in a few buildings. Exhibits range from real airplanes to various artifacts and historical displays. There are also a number of aircraft outside on the museum grounds you can see by either walking or taking the tram tour. I recommend the tram tour because the guide gives you some great information about a lot of the planes. Theses aren't just Air Force planes, all military branches are represented. One of the other tour options is the boneyard tour, you need to schedule a time when you arrive, they sell out early and run about every hour and a half. You get on a nice air conditioned bus and they take you inside the Air Force air base across from the museum. There has to be over a thousand airplanes/helicopters of various shapes and sizes. The driver points out a few and gives additional information about the boneyard. I still shake my head at the number and dollars tied up in those planes. There are separate charges for the tram tour and the boneyard tour. I would suggest getting in line for the museum by 8:30 ( the museum opens at 9) especially if you want to book an early boneyard tour. We were there about 9 and the first boneyard tour we could get on was 1:30. This was on a weekday. But even if you don't do the boneyard tour you will love this museum if you love aviation history. There is a restaurant and gift shop on the property, food was pretty decent.

  这个地方很多年前就已经出现在我的行程单上。这次终于等到我的儿子回来看我然后我们就一起来这里了。我们非常喜欢这的博物馆。我们下次还想体验那个6块钱一张票的电车。我们一路都看见好多衣架所以根本就看不清楚外面的街景。他们会给当地皮马县的居民2块钱的优惠,这还是很不错的。志愿者都非常热情而且知识渊博。这里的历史感非常浓厚,我们计划下次还要来。我非常喜欢看这的所有工艺品!

  不管你是否了解飞机,你都会觉得在这家博物馆呆一天根本不够。很早到了那里,买了室外有轨电车的票和废物填埋场(Bone Yard)的票。这种组合超棒,可以清楚地让你了解这两片地方。室外有轨电车游是围绕着博物馆30多万平方米缓慢地开一个半小时,通常都有飞行员志愿者来开车加讲解,他们这一辈子都在跟飞机打交道,尤其是了解军用飞机。乘车游览能很好地让我们了解了外面的所有飞机,方便下午慢慢参观。乘有轨电车游览后,你只有时间去一下卫生间,就要乘坐巴士去路对面的填埋场了,也是一个半小时的旅行,三千多架飞机停存在这里,拆卸报废。导游带这个路已经有十三年了,可以回答各种问题,能让最疯狂的飞机发烧友满意,并感到惊奇。从填埋场出来之后,就去博物馆的咖啡馆迅速吃点午餐,然后就可以前往户外场所,自行观看飞机。如果正赶上一天中最热的时间或者很偶尔的一个雨天,那里也有很多有遮盖的展区,可以参观那些有挡头的展品,其中都蕴藏着、祭奠着一些战争与冲突。如果对飞机有点儿兴趣的话,需要一天的参观时间;如果对飞机和战争有一时的兴趣,意味着你需要买两日游的票;但是如果对摄影和飞机都感兴趣,那就需要三天时间来游览这家超棒的博物馆,并和那些见识广博的志愿者们聊天了。

  Wonderful museum.... Full of aviation history....Be sure to take one of the bus tours on the grounds of the museum, or sign up for the tour of the "Boneyard", which is located just north of the museum, where the government sends surplus aircraft for either storage or scrapping... If an aircraft is flying somewhere in the world, they have surplus parts and sell them to other governments... A good time to be had. Very informative and educational.

  一定要去航空所看看。那里有保持很好的博物馆和飞机。员工和导游的知识很丰富,他们很乐意把个人的经历联系起来。从周一到周五公交汽车导游Davis Monthan Boneyard都随时有空去博物馆,那里有大量的航空器储存,令旅游非常有趣。这是个能看到上千航空器的地方,那里很有趣,不仅仅对爱好者来说,对所有人都很有吸引力。

  Aviation and history buffs should plan on spending at least half a day here. Along with many, many vintage planes this museum has an Air Force One flown on by Kennedy and is also the home of the somewhat famous aircraft "bone yard" with hundreds of planes. I recommend, though, since much of this is outdoors that your time your visit outside of the summer months although there are plenty of indoor exhibits that may also be appreciated.

  真的收藏了大量飞机。我建议花37元人民币,乘坐有轨电车游览,会告诉你很多关于飞机的东西,比你从那些小讲解牌上了解的要多。而且有车坐着游览,这样挺好的,因为这里还挺大一片的。
