Celebrating the First Flight around the World! (Also included in your Museum Admission!)
Join us to mark the 100th anniversary of the first round-the-world flight. Concluded in Seattle, WA on September 28, 1924, the attempt to fly around the world began in April of that year! We are observing the centennial with exciting programming, and a book fair that celebrates the great aviation adventures!
Saturdays at 1pm from May to September, the Military Aviation Museum will be showcasing historical aircraft and commemorating important wartime events through narrated flying demonstrations.
Experience the rumble from the engine up close as you hear from the pilots about what it is like to fly these incredible aircraft, learn about the battles they participated in, and about the men and women who built, flew and maintained them during the war!
Summer of Flight is included in your general museum admission and free for museum members. Each event starts at 1:00 pm unless otherwise noted.
Flights, Aircraft and Topics subject to change. Due to inclement weather, dates may be rescheduled to a later date or canceled. All flights are weather and maintenance permitting.
