One terrific, smaller museum. I expected, just planes, and they offer a whole lot more. Lots of planes, bikes, cars and military artifacts. The reconstruction of the P-40 is interesting to watch. The staff is devoted and they love their jobs.

I enjoyed my visit to this surprisingly large collection of aircraft and artifacts. Clearly the place has remained a labor of love for several generations of Curtiss enthusiasts. My only regret is that there wasn’t a brief overview of his life and work near the...More
