New England Air Museum

Review:
The Museum is situated in three large display buildings consisting of more than 75,000 square feet of exhibit space. In fair weather, the outside storage yard is available for touring as well.
It is recommended that you allow at least 1 1/2 hours for your visit, though hard-core aviation and history enthusiasts will want to spend several hours viewing not only our aircraft and engine displays, but our many fascinating exhibits on such diverse topics as the Lafayette Escadrille, WWII Combat Gliders, the History of Sikorsky Aircraft, Early French Aviation, a History of Air Mail, the Tuskegee Airmen, Airships, and many others.
Please note: In the event of snowy or icy weather, the Museum may not be open. Please do not assume that we are open on a bad weather day without talking with a live person first during regular business hours at (860) 623-3305.
