The Museum boasts a collection of aircraft starting with a Curtiss-Wright B-14-B 'Speedwing' bi-plane built in 1932. It is one-of-a-kind and has been beautifully restored. There are over 40 aircraft and a full collection of aircraft engines from the World War I Gnome Rotary to an Allison V3420 and the SR-71 J-58. Many aircraft are open, while others hang from the ceiling of the 30,000 SF pavilion. Aircraft include all 'Century' series USAF aircraft, a MIG-17PF and MIG-21F, FB-11A and an F-14D, plus a Pitts S-1 acrobatic racer and an AQM - 187 drone. Norden Bomb Sight - On display is one of the original Norden bomb sights, which were used by American bombardiers for precision day bombing during World War II. These bomb sights were really small computers that were maintained and repaired in the shops at the Sacramento Air Depot later Sacramento Air Logistics Center at McClellan AFB. Come visit The Viper Zone, our flight simulation center and feel the rush behind the controls of two F-16 CPTs and Dreamflyer motion simulator, as well as the Morphis motion-ride simulator. The Museum is open Tuesday - Saturday, 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM Sunday, 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM. There is a fully stocked Gift Shop. - Submitted by James Hopp |

11/17/2013 - The museum moved across the street from the airport and is no longer accessible to fly in traffic. There isn't an exit at the airport you can use to get out and then back in. I recommend that you drive to see this museum. - Submitted by Jeremy
