This is one of the best air museums in the country. While not the largest they do a fantastic job of balancing fun and education. Its not a walk around and stare at old planes museum, but an interactive showplace. Spend some time marveling at the priceless and rare planes in the collection, including a B-25 and one of only... more

Took some friends from out of the country. Assumed it was a small town museum but it was chock full of planes, rides, history and they did a great job of displaying it all.

We visited the Air Zoo with a family group, ages ranging from 3-70. It was fun for all! Located near Kalamazoo's airport, at 6151 Portage Rd, it gave a history of aviation. Available were places to view videos, an introduction movie, rides for old and young alike, a children's play room, and much more. Planes from various eras hang from... more

The Kalamazoo Air Museum no longer gives rides in the 1929 Ford Tri-Motor as stated on their web site. The Tri-Motor is down for repairs and will not return until sometime in 2004, if then. Call before visiting. more
