Reviewed By edmundo2677 - Portland, United States
This facility covers virtually everything connected to air and space travel, including a host of knowledgeable volunteers eager to explain almost every aspect of the wonderful flying machines on display. Most of the air and spacecraft on display are inside huge buildings, yet many aircraft are displayed outside available to the cost conscious... FREE to look and wander the grounds. Even those wishing to get a peek of the massive Spruce Goose Flying Boat can take a look inside, have lunch or a drink at the inside cafe, browse the gift shop and buy a $6 ticket to view a special movie created on the history of air/space travel. Additionally, there is an enormous indoor water park on site. While it was closed on my visit, there is a 747 aircraft shell sitting atop the roof with water slides exiting the aircraft and dropping through the roof to the water park below. There are activities and unforgettable sights for all ages.
