Had a couple of planes you could go inside which was cool. Very small though, not many displays. Took maybe 30 minutes to see everything. Would not be very easy for a handicapped person. Volunteer was very nice.

Very cool! Not the biggest display, but the aircraft that they do have is worth seeing. The people that work there are full of knowledge and very helpful. And being located next the manufacturing facility for the Osprey boost the wow factor. I will definitely be coming back to see more. Thank you for the great tour and history lesson.

Super friendly and interesting; almost concealed entrance. A lot packed into a small space. Dont forget to visit the English Field House Restaurant literally 2 mins away.

I had to give it one less star. Because of covid we couldnt go outside. I really wanted to see the helicopters. It still was interesting but small. Donations accepted.

Really great place, so much cool stuff and new information to learn! Never really been interested or even thought about anything aircraft related but this place really sparked my interest. 10/10 would recommend

This place is amazing and Ron our tour guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Mine and my family’s experience was great!! If you’re ever in Amarillo this is definitely a place to go to. It is great for all ages. Please consider donating to this wonderful place so they can make their future plans of expanding come true.

Really liked all the old planes ....the guide will occasionally offer to take a better picture...with your thumb up...

I gave this 2/5 stars simply because its a very small museum located in a Bell Helicopter business park/extra public hangar. There are 6 different aircraft available to see but really only 1 that you can enter at the moment during this pandemic and thats with a museum guide. Two of the aircraft have been stripped so theyre more like remnants of what they once were.The guide was very nice and knowledgeable although the lady at the front desk seemed frustrated that we came in when we did. She seemed to warm up as we were leaving but nothing says dont come back like feeling like youve interrupted someones crossword puzzle.The museum is mainly a small fenced off portion within a working public hangar along with one room that has numerous aircraft models. There isnt a coordinated theme other than flight but with the limited items, it feels more like another museums leftovers. Perhaps this will continue to evolve into a better museum but as it stands now, this feels like a side project to showcase some old stuff pulled out of boxes. That said, this museum isnt claiming to be the Smithsonian either so theres that.

This was just a random stop in between getting where we were going and it was a great find! Our guide was wonderful. We got to get into most of the planes. The kids loved it as well as the adults. They dont charge admission but go off of donations. One of the best things we did in our trip.

Free interesting site to visit. I loved the fact that your guides are retired service soldiers

It was very interesting and a lot of information and the volunteers are friendly.

Highly recommended for the whole family. Its free and informative. Our guide was wonderful and full of fun facts and stories. The kids loved being able to interact with the planes both indoors and outside!

This place was very interesting but GOOD. Wasnt expecting to see & learn so much

Great place for the family to go for some interesting educational exhibits

Great place to go to and the people there are very nice

We had a blast. It was super cool to be able to go inside the planes that was there. They are run on donations and was given several buildings so they can expand. Its gonna be even better when they get I to the new buildings.

At a working airport which makes it interesting. A few aircraft you can go in, a guided tour with knowledgeable friendly volunteers and a large exhibit room!

This museum is a MUST SEE!!! Especially if you are interested in aviation and/or space.And even if youre not interested, still go and check it out. The three gentlemen who run the museum are of the most top notch quality and know what they are talking about.

Cool planes and friendly people

Good place to stop by and see some interesting aircraft and if youre lucky when its not busy one of the operators will give you a detailed private tour.Its free admission but donations are welcome.

Amazing what theyve been able to pack into such a small site. Theres a good collection of historical objects from the world wars and even parts of the space shuttles. A gem in the city of Amarillo.

Good family fun. Cant beat a free museum, so I couldnt complain much about our tour guide forcing political talk. Really cool coloring pages for the kids too!

Anytime you are in Amarillo, plan to visit this outstanding museum. The tour will last about 2 hours and is free! (I would encourage you to make a donation as this is a local museum that will benefit from your generosity). Everything from an original photo of the Wright Brothers first flight to Space Flight memorabilia to military aircraft. Make the time to include this in your travels! I was lucky enough to have the Museum President lead my tour!

Great museum with some good ol artifacts to strengthen your air vocabulary

A bunch of veterans run this place which makes it that much cooler. Theyve got stories! You get a guided tour and get to walk into some of the planes, as well as see a lot of historical memorabilia and plane models created by friends of the museum. Its small, but worth the stop

The one fella giving the tours was great, second guy was not quite as friendly. One critique I would give, dont make it an educational experience on the planes mechanical...focus on the history, thats a museums intention.

I would give it 5 stars, but at this time I cant. They are trying to acquire more peices and update the buildings, but as far as I can see, this is just starting to get good.

The tour was awesome!

Love going here with my grandchildren! They love to get in the Caribou and the DC3 and all the other planes. Of course we usually leave with a new toy too! Two future F16 pilots!!! Its also nice that there are knowledgeable guides and its free!

One day this will be a great museum. For now they have a couple of neat pieces and knowledgeable guides to tell you about the aircraft they have on display. I would recommend a quick stop here.

Awesome collection!

Very interesting. Nice staff. Free admission, about 2 hrs will be more than enough.

Well educated tour guide. Excellent displays and it was great to get to board some of the planes. Highly recommended

Oh wow. If you are even interested in old planes a little bit, you’ve gotta check this place out. It’s not your usual aircraft museum. On every visit, you get a guided tour automatically. And you don’t just look at the planes from outside - you get to go IN almost all of them. That huge and magnificent old DC-3 that’s in their hangar? Yep, you get to go inside. That jet on the ramp that was modified by NASA for astronaut training? Yep, they invite you in.It’s a “little museum that could” and a better way to experience aviation history than just looking at planes from behind a rope. Even my toddler loved it!

Good little place. Cant wait to see the new facility when done.

Awesome Place! Its free to visit , we got to see a couple aircraft taking off and landing do its proximity to an active landing strip. Please Donate to keep this place going, its awesome!!

I really enjoyed seeing the part of the museums collection that is on display. The space is rather small, especially considering the theme and size of the collection. Still, there are several interesting displays, and a handful of actual aircraft. The gentleman who handled our tour was very informative, and the whole staff was friendly. Heres hoping the museum will find a wealthy benefactor who will help pay for its move to a larger venue.

I was the only visitor at the museum that day got a private tour I was very interested in the aircraft that was there. They do not have an extensive display but its kind of nice to be able to get into some of the aircraft and to learn of the space shuttle connections to that airport

Came here with BSA Troop 17 from Nashville, TN. We had a great time visiting with the volunteers and seeing the planes!

Random stop on our way back to Colorado. So glad we found it! Very knowledgeable, friendly personal tour guide with fascinating stories. Made it interesting for our 8 year old son, who loved climbing into the planes and sitting in the cockpit. Will be back when they have expanded!

This is a great place to learn about planes and NASA. The guide was most knowledgeable.I will return with more grandchildren so they can experience it.

Small but good . nice people there

It is impressive to walk along different types of planes. One of which they allow you to walk inside of. When you head there you may feel like you have gone the wrong way but once inside you will find handcrafted models of planes and even some stuff from NASA space exploration. Wish I had more time and hadnt gotten there just near closing.

Awesome guided tour by military veterans.

Price: Suggested Donation.Food: Not Allowed.Service: Excellent.Cleanliness: Excellent.Location: Near Amarillo Airport.Exhibits: Very Interesting.

A great place to read learn your history good atmosphere preserved planes and great staff.

Great people. Great planes. Great time.

Great museum with a fantastic tour guide ! ! So many interesting and eclectic items on display. You can actually walk thru some of the planes! A Definite must visit in Amarillo! And it was FREE!

Enjoyed guided tour with Viper...Lots of inside details...Extensive collection & expanding to increased museum footprint...Very cool!!

There were excellent exhibits. The staff was incredibly kind, and I get the sense they take their mission seriously. Everything is well taken care of, and of course, its educational. I highly recommend visiting this museum. I also think its worth donating to.

We truly enjoyed ourselves! Amarillo we need to pull together and invest in helping expand this place. Volunteers are needed as well.

Small museum but worth the time to see.

The tour guide was giving history and knew everything about the planes they had, the kids loved it

Great volunteers and a lot to see and learn

Very cool. Hopefully they end up getting money needed to expand. Their volunteers have great knowledge and AWESOME stories as you tour the musuem.

My kids had a great time and just kept talking about it even called their grandparents to brag. We all had a great time. The tour guides were great and very knowledgeable.

Not the biggest or best collection but most knowledgeable guides. So glad we had a chance to visit. Recommend it highly even if you are not an airplane buff. They earn and deserve your financial support!!!

Great informed tour Anne was fantastic

Personal tour was great. I understand they have even more to exhibit but dont have the space. Please donate when you visit.

Enjoyed the tour given by the very knowledgeable host!! The tour was very informative and a little hands on! We did get to see some interesting space information and air space about planes, etc. Going into the actual planes on property was amazing!! I learned alot!! Thanks guys for a great tour! We appreciated the knowledge and professionalism you showed!! I would recommend anyone in the area to stop and visit!!

Great place for kids too, Go see for yourself,

Hidden gem in Amarillo!

This museum is a hidden gem for anyone interested in aviation as it has many civilian and vintage military aircraft, they have a few artifacts from NASA. The Gulfstream II modified to train NASA shuttle pilots with shuttle controls on one side and second pilot using original controls is outdoors along with Caribou military transport, you can enter inside and see for yourself the controls, the space provided for cargo and people, the old navigation equipment. They have an actual Korean war era M*A*S*H helicopter, a vintage passenger aircraft Douglas DC-3. There are many other aircraft -- ultralights, racers etc. The guides are volunteers and pilots, they are interesting to talk to, however it takes a bit of background knowledge to get started -- if you are in the area, you like aircraft and want to see the history for yourself, this place is practically a must.

First place Ive ever been where you get to go inside the planes. I especially love the NASA training aircraft they have.

Great place to visit!

This was such an amazing experience...cant give it enough stars!

Very interesting, enjoyed being able to go in some of the aircrafts

What a great museum! Thank you for the informative, individualized tour.

Tour guide was very friendly and knowledgable. This place has some really nifty aircraft that you can climb inside of and take a close look. Would recommend a visit to anyone with even a passing interest in aerospace.

Awesome place, great history and hands on.

Came here on a spur of the moment and and Jerry and his wife were just absolutely amazing and very knowledgeable. I completely recommend going to see some of the rare and off things they have there!

Great place to see.

Boring but it was kinda cool because you could get inside the planes

Very knowledgeable group of volunteers who staff the museum. Limited number of aircraft, but a wealth of information is provided for each plane there.

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff along with lots of planes and helicopters plus the facts to go with them

So dope.We were on the way back to Chicago from San Francisco and we were stopping in Amarillo for lunch (BBQ!! heyyooo) But we had some time to kill. Looked up some things to do locally, considered the zoo but eh I mean we got a pretty cool zoo back home... Saw something else interesting but it would have been $18 each and we were on a budget (and it didnt sound thaaaat interesting).Told my guy there was an Air and Space Museum in the area and I swear my mans eyes lit up. AND it was free? Boom. Done. Put it in the gps and after a 20min drive we were like.....is this it? I had to check that I put it in my phone right cuz it totally looked like we were driving into the airport. Dont worry though, just keep driving its there. Smaller sign, inconspicuous door, but I swear its there. And its totally worth it. (I mean, its free so I guess thats not saying much.. so its more than worth it? A deal, by far)Anyways, no spoilers about the actual tour/stories/info but theres super cool photos, awesome models, and amazing aircraft. We thought it would be a fairly short look around but we ended up staying I think two hours? So many interesting things to look at. What really blew me away (other than the helicopter that landed/took off while we were there hehe) were the people. Everyone was incredibly nice and knowledgeable. I feel like we got a good sense of the team, we bounced around between tour guides to see different sections they had at different times and they were all sooo cool. Slightly different things to say and different personalities made it so much fun.I think we probably got the perfect tour, started with a bunch of cool stories and information, packed with jokes and sprinkled with movie recommendations; this guy was hilarious and extremely entertaining yet obviously knew what he was talking about. Second part/ tour guide felt a little more structured but she had some fantastic info/stories too. It got a little more hands on and she let me sit in everything and made sure I got to touch and see all the things! :D awesome. Third part/guy had great things to share too, definitely some chuckles, and he just seemed so happy, it was like the perfect end.They have a small gift shop too I checked out at the end (super casual, ofc had to get some post cards but they got some rad posters too). I am sooo glad we stopped here. It ended up being one of the many highlights of our trip.Thanks guys!:)

Great Place!

So interesting loved the history of the ships

Very Informative

A museum secret treasure! Worth the drive and time.

Small but very interesting place. Donation to enter and very nice guides. Great stop.

Cool place to check out some history, the people that hang-out to show you around are great!

The only place I have ever heard of let a little boy have his birthday party inside an airplane AND play in the cockpit! Totally awesome place

Great fun for the family

GET A PATREON but a good museum

We learned so much! It was such a personal experience..full of stories and history!!

Small but compact

The tour guide was very informative

Informative and friendly people

Very informational. Volunteers are wonderful.

This is a fascinating little place here in Amarillo

Awesome

They need more space

Not much to see

C-7 Caribou outside on tarmac. DC-3 and P-51 Mustang inside museum.

Very small museum with a few static displays. One DC3 is the only aircraft on display. They have other materials in storage but no room to display. Not handicap accessible at all.

Very interesting!
