Great assortment of aircraft, and great staff! my favorite air museums are the ones you can get up-close and personal with the aircraft and this place is great for this ! I drove 90 min to get here to see the CH53, the F14, and the X32B, but the other aircraft are amazing as well. Seeing the Fa-18, and the Viking was outstanding ! its at the entrance of the Patuxent River Naval base and your might have the opportunity to see flying aircraft. its a Good two to three hour to walk the whole thing.

While not the largest museum collection ever, the quality is awesome. The static displays are worth the price of admission alone. Great people and good quality museum for any lovers of aviation or naval history.
