Air Power Park is dedicated to the vital role of aircraft and rockets in early American space exploration. There are indoor and outdoor exhibits of missiles, rockets, and fighter aircraft, including a Hawker Kestrel, a Phantom, a Voodoo, and a Mercury Capsule.
Other exhibits in the museum focus on the different military branches of service, and there is a large collection of Balsa wood aircraft models. Many of the exhibits are linked to the nearby Langley Air Force Base and the NASA Langley Research Center. Children are sure to enjoy the outdoor playground as well as the new Children's Room in the museum.
