About Mid-America Air Museum

The museum houses a large aircraft collection that grew out of a donation of more than 50 personal planes by the late Colonel Tom Thomas, Jr. A reviewer found the planes packed closely into the hangar, and felt a typical visit lasts roughly an hour. Displays include the smallest aircraft ever used as Air Force One and a record-setting Piper Comanche. Outdoor aircraft sit on the tarmac, and a hot air balloon exhibit is also featured. Group tours of ten or more can be booked in advance, and electric carts are provided for visitors who need mobility help. Summer programs for children aged 8 to 12 and robotics classes for grades K through 8 are also offered.
