Valencia Road Address(2) City Tucson State Arizona Zip Country USA Contact Phone Fax Giftshop Yes The museum enjoys an international reputation as one of the best anywhere. For aviation enthusiasts of all ages, PASM brings history to life. Pima Air Museum had the humblest of beginnings. The museum was conceived in 1966 and a year later the Tucson Air Museum Foundation was incorporated as an educational on-profit organization responsible for the operation of the museum. Ten years later, on May 8, 1976, the museum opened to the public as an official Bicentennial event. The tremendous effort involved in Opening the museum was put forth solely by volunteers. Picture if you will, 75 aircraft in a bare desert setting with the only structure on the ground being a small tin shack used to sell tickets. Few tickets were sold during the first few months of operation but, today, about 165,000 visitors a year tour the museum. The museum receives no government funds and is supported solely by gate admissions, gift shop sales, memberships and donations. However, the museum admits all school groups grade 12 and below, at no charge. Educational packets and docent tours for the school groups are provided to make the students' visit a rewarding one. Last year, over 6000 school age children visited the museum. PASM is continually enhancing its educational programs.

    Extractions: Tty: For one brief shining moment the world paused in wonder. The typewriters in offices across America halted as millions watched the drama unfold. Children stared in awe at the spectacle. Older citizens, who were children when the Wright Brothers made their first flight, watched the culmination of the dream. There was a pause, a crackle of static, and the radio transmission, "Houston: Tranquility base here. The Eagle has landed." Commander for Apollo 11, was the first man to walk on the moon on July 20, 1969. Neil Armstrong's one small step on July 20, 1969, was truly a giant leap for mankind. It began seventy years earlier in the Dayton, Ohio bicycle shop of Wilbur and Orville Wright. In one lifetime, man lifted himself from the sands of Kitty Hawk to the lunar dust of the Sea of Tranquility. The first gallery features artifacts from early air achievements and reveals Ohio's significant role in the development of flight. The hot air balloon era is represented by a balloon basket and trophy won by Dayton balloonist Warren Rasor. The large airframe suspended from the ceiling is from the Toledo II, the first manned and powered airship to grace New York City skies. A reconstructed Wright Model G Aero-boat, built in Dayton and flown from the Miami River in 1913, is an unusual reminder of the pioneering accomplishments of Orville and Wilbur Wright from Dayton, Ohio.

HERNDON, Virginia (CNN) One of the most popular museums in the world is expanding, as the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum opens a new hangar to showcase more legends from the sky, including a test craft that paved the way for the space shuttle and the plane that dropped the first atomic bomb. The new Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, which officially opens to the public Monday, is on the grounds of Dulles International Airport in northern Virginia, about 30 miles west of the main museum in Washington, D.C. But as thousands of guests, including many active and retired military pilots, found out during a sneak preview Thursday, going those few extra miles is more than worth it.

All ages, from toddlers to teenagers to parents, will find something to capture their imagination. Walk through a space station, gawk at the tiny ships of the early space program, walk through the myriad special exhibits. The museum is well- designed to handle the large crowds that visit. Do be warned, though, that the cafeteria doesn't quite do as well. Did you find this review helpful? 875 of 1746 people found this review helpful Review: Having always loved this museum as a child, I was thrilled as my daughter raced from exihibit to exhibit. Being only two, she wasn't interested in every single aspect, but there was plenty of hands on things to amaze her. It's become a favorite topic, even weeks later. And she loves the lighted ball and stars for her bedroom ceiling! But I agree, the food was something we could have passed on!!! Did you find this review helpful?
