Review:
The New England Air Museum, at Bradley International Airport, presents the history of aviation in a lively and interesting way.
The three hangars of the museum display over 65 aircraft, from the early pioneering flight eras to modern jet planes, as well as helicopters and ultra-light aircraft.
There is a large exhibit of aircraft engines spanning the history of flight, a good-sized display focusing on the history of commercial aviation, and educational videos for children and adults.
There is an emphasis on interactive exhibits at the museum, with a flight simulator, cockpits in which visitors can sit and test out the controls, and hands-on activities and interactive games for children. Visitors can even watch aircraft being restored. The museum has a gift shop.
