| Harold V Arkenbout Melbourne, Florida | In 2006, I traveled over 3000 miles and a good part of those miles were traveled just to visit this museum. Since then, I have moved to Melbourne, FL and in 2008 I did a similar trip of over 1000 miles. Each of these trips, this museum amazed and enlightened me about aviation. The excitement I felt after and during these visits cannot be explained, except to say this is a world class museum and one no aviation enthusiast can afford to miss. I will definitely return one day soon. You need at least 3 days to see it all. I went home after two days and almost 300 pictures. The exhibits are maintained well beyond anyone's expectations, the food is great and the staff are the best. Thank you all. 03/24/2009 @ 15:53 [ref: 8755] |

| Steve Las Vegas, Nevada | A correction to the student pilot from Ft. Rucker. The President did not fly in Air Force One out to an aircraft carrier. When the President is transported via air, the call sign is the service doing the transport followed by "one," no matter what the make or model of the craft. Thus, when the presdient flew in an S-3 to the carrier and the call sign was "Navy One." When flying from the south lawn of the White House, the craft is "Marine One," and when flying in any fixed wing or rotary wing aircraft operated by the Air Force, not just the 747, the call sign is "Air Force One." 12/21/2008 @ 09:27 [ref: 8576] |
| Oyunlar , Arkansas | Aviation history is absolutely fantastic and none is better than Naval Aviation. Although I was part of the A-4 and A-7 carrier attack squadrons in the 1970s, I especially like the famous Vought F-8 Crusader and the many stories about dog fighting wins in Vietnam. It was indeed the last of the true gunslingers and dog fighters. Oyunlar 12/15/2008 @ 06:03 [ref: 8561] |
| bigdougdog Ft. Rucker, Alabama | I am a student pilot for the Army at Ft. Rucker. Myself and a LT friend of mine have taken several weekends to travel to all the aviation museums within driving distance and this museum by far is the best. It is insane the history and collection of aircraft this place has. That collection includes Navy 1, Marien 1, and the plane that was Air Force 1 for a few hours while the president flew out to an aircraft carrier. Highly recomend this museum. 12/14/2008 @ 18:46 [ref: 8559] |
| Robert Staples , Florida | I have seen many aircraft displays but this museum is mind bogling. terrific layout and much history. The restoration area behind the museum was extremely interesting. If you love aircraft this is a must see! 08/04/2008 @ 08:45 [ref: 8314] |
| Colin Povey Clearwater, Florida | Absolutely a world-class museum. Probably one of the top five aviation museums on the planet. If you love aviation museums, this needs to be on your must-see list. Ranks up there with the Smithsonian and Wright-Patterson AFB. I spent parts of two days there and could not see it all. In addition to a large collection that includes some rare aircraft, it is all well-presented. Loved the skeletonized Catalina. The on-site restaurant is much better than most museum restaurants, and is built from pieces salvaged from the O club from the old Subic Bay bar. 07/10/2008 @ 06:42 [ref: 8203] |
| Sara Nirmaier Stone Eugene, Oregon | When I visited your museum I found my grandfather's name listed as 3rd Navy Pilot Edwin Nirmaier. I was hoping your website would have that list of Navy pilots and perhaps some information on their service. 06/13/2008 @ 02:13 [ref: 8081] |
