AVIATION HISTORY MUSEUMS
AVIATION HISTORY MUSEUMS
History of Aviation.jpg

Welcome

I seek out unique and relatively unknown aviation history museums (as well as an occasional well-known one) and tour them with a pilot’s perspective.

You will also learn about what to do in the local area, museum hours and costs as well as other interesting odds and ends.

I’ll be bringing you a new experience about once a month.
