The last updates on the museum listings were added 18 Jan 2011
Due to legal changes in Illinois, I will not be updating this list until further
notice.
These museums change their information and locations very often.
Please try to contact the museum before you try to visit it, it may not be there
anymore.

Notice:
The Champlin
Fighter Aircraft Museum in Mesa, Arizona is now closed. The collection has moved
to
The Museum of Flight,
Seattle, WA
Now moved to Seattle, WA, but when I first went to this museum I thought,
Am I actually going to
pay to get into this place. What a fool I was. They have a
great section on just Aviation Paintings. It was worth the entrance
to see just the paintings alone. But believe me, the rest of the
museum is fantastic with a lot of other aircraft stuff other than airplanes.
The only thing that I could say is that this place is fantastic and you
should never miss this museum. It must have the worlds greatest inventory
of WWI aircraft. It's Great!!!!

I saw on your museum page for
Arizona that you did not have a location for the
Planes of Fame Museum. It is located at the Valle Airport which is
located on
Arizona Highway 64 at the junction of US Route 180, in Valle, Arizona.
This is halfway from Sedona
to the Grand Canyon Airport as the crow ( or any other aviator) flies!

I wanted to thank you for your help. We have
called the airfield in Arizona and have made arrangements for my
husband's birthday present - flying a fighter plane. I'm sure he
will be excited and it will be a present he will remember
forever. Thank you again for all your help.
Deb WoodDear Debra,
Yes, there are a number of military aircraft that can be flown, some
are very expensive and some you can even have a real dogfight with
another aircraft with laser bullets and smoke and the whole
works. Here is the link to the website that has the whole shooting
match.

One of my friends took a MiG-25 to 80,000 feet last year and loved
every minute of it. Thank you very much for writing and have a nice
day,

Last spring the North Pole temperature was only -25 degree F.
We flew an ultralight, 6 balloon pilots logged their North
Pole flights,
We had five jumpers who entered their jumps in their logbooks,
there was a man in a wheelchair who made it to the pole,
We had several helicopters, a home built airplane, a jet
and an An-2 Biplane there. Everyone got to visit Star City
(Russia's NASA)
the Kremlin Armory, and Red Square. The Expedition members
flew in
Russian Military aircraft including the An-24, An-74, and the Mi-8.
They also
visited Khatanga and saw the Woolly Mammoth Digs, and Shrednii Island's
Russian, formerly secret, ICBM base and more. The trip was inexpensive
and you can go
to the north pole site or go with us next by clicking here
