Rating Rated by Date Review Laura 9/24/2008 10:52:00 PM We visited the museum in April, 2008. The museum was great! We are so sorry for the destruction that happened with Hurricane Ike. We have seen the pictures on www.lsfm.org. I hope that your were able to save some of the Texas Aviation Hall of Fame displays before the hurricane hit. If not, what a tragic loss. We thought the Hall of Fame was such an historical display. Good luck with putting the museum back together. Jim 7/16/2008 11:06:00 AM Very nice museum. We had a great time and appreciate all the time and effort put in to resore and maintain all of the aircraft, other equipment, and displays. Its hard for anyone outside of the Aviation community to understand all that gos into such an expensive, precise, and complicated endevor. We had a very nice time and will definately come back. Again, thank you for all the effort. Steve Smythers 6/28/2008 10:43:00 AM Awesome collection of history. Very well done. Family had great time. Staff was incredible and very informative. The only way anyone could think this was boring would be to take your freedom for granted. Plan to return next time we go to Galveston. Nice gift shop as well. Keep up the great work. Melissa 6/24/2008 11:42:00 AM Incredible display. How rare an opportunity to see such a collection of aircraft and experience the history surrounding them. Highly recommend a visit! Brett 6/23/2008 1:09:00 PM Boring! Kids will want to jump off the wings to end the boredom! Alot of nice planes and volunteers working hard to continue some of the restorations. Not interactive whatsoever though! Neta 6/2/2008 10:17:00 PM Outstanding place. The history in those buildings is just amazing and everyone can enjoy & appreciate seeing the aircraft and other items on display. There was a short film being shown while we were there about CSI-NY actor Gary Sinise bring his uncle down there recently that was terrific. Great place for any age!
