Description:

The exhilaration of flight has long sparked the imagination of people everywhere. With over 150 different exhibits dedicated to air and space, the Museum of Flight celebrates the greatest achievements of aviation.

The history of aviation, from the first flying contraptions to modern military jets (like the M21 Blackbird), is on full display for you in this family-attentive, interactive museum.

Begin with The Birth of Aviation exhibit to experience the journey the Wright Brothers took to create their flying machine; learn through historical documents and interactive displays. Visits to the World War I and World War II galleries provide a glimpse into some of the aircraft that were instrumental in helping the US and its allies prevail in these global conflicts.

Commercial aviation is explored in The Boeing Story. Boeing's original manufacturing plant is part of the museum grounds and has been fully restored to tell the story of Boeing's rise to prominence. The Great Gallery houses many of the magnificent aircraft that comprise the museum's vast collection. Early model Boeing planes are mixed with modern military jets like the F-14 Tomcat and F-4 Phantom.

Complete your day by exploring the famous aircraft in the nearby Airpark. Walk through the first presidential jet, a Boeing 707, which was used by presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon. You can also explore a Concorde (the only supersonic passenger jet ever used in service) as well as the first 747 ever built.
