Great Museum with informative staff. Wonderful displays and the P-51, F-5, F-14 and YF-17 are spectacular. I fell in love with Sabre Jet. A must see for anyone in the area. Ask for Dana and he will give you the complete history.

The Western Museum of Flight at Hawthorne Municipal Airport (formerly the Northrop Museum) has had to close its doors owing to a steep rent increase. They have rented a pair of hangers at Torrance Airport, mostly for storage. They will have a modest museum presence there while they seek a new permanent home.

It is well worth looking at the various artefacts and photos on the museum besides the goodies outside. These include YF23 [87-801] which is rather tight and difficult to photograph from some angles. Good pictures can be taken of most others including F14A Tomcat [159830 VF2], a Norwegian F5 [207 and the YF17 Northrop Cobra [201569]. In the side yard was an unmarked F86F and blue Skyhawk [142227]

 Cologne,

The Museum has indeed some really rare aircraft like the YF-23 and the YF-17 but there where parked so close together that there is no possibility to see one aircraft in total. Greetings Thomas

The Western Museum of Flight is more of a restoration facility versus an Air Museum. However, they do have the best collection of Northrop Aircraft in the World. Their collection includes the: Northrop YF-23A Black Widow II (PAV-II), the Northrop JB-1 Jeep (flying wing bomb), the Northrop YF-17 Cobra prototype (forerunner of the F/A-18 Hornet), a Northrop F-5A Freedom Fighter, a rare Lockheed Missiles YO-3A Quiet Star, plus others. It's worth a visit if you're in the Los Angeles area.
