This museum is well worth the small fee they charge. Just to see the Airbus that Capt Sullenburger landed on the Hudson River was worth it alone. The exhibits are well kept and the staff is knowledgeable, and friendly.
Very uncomfortable work environment with very unrealistic expectations of all underpaid staff members. Everyone at the museum serving as "staff" is always under an unreliable amount of stress. They do not cope, but pass that anxiety down the chain and fire/ punish/ blame all of those at the bottom of their staffs food chain.The senior level management and board have no personal relationships with visitors or staff members themselves, which creates mass confusion between all.
There are many communication problems through the museum board, operations, volunteer coordinator, education department, and senior level management that should be trying to fix this. It is such major issue in this organization that I would not recommend working for this museum until they find their true identity, gain organization, have the full and correct senior level Managment staff with good communication skills, an actual orientation with employee expectations, personal development goals, training sessions, and a full HR department that has no friendly relationships to create a comfortable and reliable source to discuss working relations with.
Very interesting place to go. Great learning experience. Great place to bring the kids. Great place to be.
Very nice place. Helpful staff. Cool displays. Not too long of a tour and you are close to the runway so you get to see planes taking off and landing pretty close.
Visited the museum on a Sunday. I was very surprised at the number of people visiting. It is reasonably priced has a lot of great history. Each exhibit has plenty of posted information and history. My personal favorites we're the Piedmont DC-3 and Miracle on the Hudson. The hangar doesn't have any AC, which wasn't a problem since it was cool outside, but I can see it getting quite warm in the summer months. A must for any aviation enthusiast.
