  • First class act by the National Park Service. Lots of great and unusual things to see in a small place. The Park Rangers were knowledgeable and friendly.

  • Great place with lots of historical information and collection of important unique things used for flight discovery. There are ranger guided tours too, for getting more information and they provide details of history and the things preserved over there. This place commemorates three important people Wilbur Wright, Orville Wright, and poet Paul Laurence Dunbar. There's a souvenir shop too. We visited here three years ago in summer.
  • Took my family here for a very educational adventure. The museum was really well done and fun to explore. There is a bonus museum all about parachuting. The original bicycle shop is still standing right across the street. Loved the stamps here for my Passport to the National Parks book!!
