Does this place have a paid director? If it does then fire him, and get someone with vision! Soon!!!!!

My family stopped on our way home. The museum was dirty, and there was only an old lady running the gift shop...who didn't know anything about planes!! Who is running this place? Only in Kansas!!!!

A very good museum. I am particularly interested in general aviation, and that is the strong point of Mid America. It has many light planes including a good selection of homebuilts. It also has a few fine examples of WWII and Korean War Military planes as well as a few other military aircraft. Outside is a small collection of unrestored Cold War craft. The museum floor is a little crowded and you are not allowed to get very close to the planes, but the presentation is better than average. The place needs a good dusting. I visit as many air museums as I can, and this one is a good day trip if you are in the area.

We were going to Colorado and decided to stop. It is a neat ...but dead museum. We were the only ones there. No tour guides,and it was sad to hear silence. This museum needs to be moved to Hutch and hooked up with the Space museum!!!! GREAT IDEA!!!!

I think the idea of moving the planes to Hutch and turning it into a Space/Aviation Museum is a GREAT idea! But this is Kansas...and they never think outside the box here! It could become world class!!!! What a shame!

My wife and I went to see the museum in 2003. It needs and A-6 and a T-2 to make it complete. But it is an airplane junkie's dream. The best thing they have is Max Conrad's Piper Comanche. And I loved the B-25 with the drip pans.

This museum is awesome. The gal from Kentucky has it all wrong. The controversy over closing the museum encouraged community involvement. They have 105 airplanes, now. The list on the site is not up-to-date as far as military aircraft. Regardless, the general aviation airplanes are every bit as interesting as the military. Don't miss this diamond.

What a great Museum. I visited in July 05 and I consider it well worth the diversion to go see. There are many military aircraft there but it is predominently light aircraft. Took me over 2 hours to get around and see all the planes. Amongst the 100 or so aircraft are many rarities that you won't see anywhere else.

This is a great museum. It is not closing and is open almost every day of the year. The correct phone number is 620-624-5263. The citys web site is :http://www.cityofliberal.com/airmuseum/find_us/index.html I have been 6 times in the past 7 years. Worth the drive even when in Ok city. Bob

This museum is closed isn't it? Didn't I read that they were closing it because the city was tired of supporting it? If they do, they should build a big museum in Hutchinson at the airport put the 90 + planes in it and run shuttles between the cosmosphere and the airport! They would then have an air/space musem that would rival the one in Wasington D.C! Instead they will both lose money every day until they close them! Look ahead! Think outside the box guys!
