Welcome to the Air Zoo!
Get ready to embark on a whole new adventure of time and space. Be sure to visit both of the Air Zoo's facilities for an historic and multi-sensory experience the entire family will enjoy. At the Air Zoo, you can learn all about the history of aviation and space exploration, enjoy indoor amusement park-style rides, watch movies in our Quonset hut-style Missions Theater, pilot a flight simulator, and interact with the Air Zoo's restoration team as they get their hands dirty bringing sunken WWII airplanes back to their former glory!
