The Hiller Aviation Museum preserves the legacy of flight and provides inspiration for future generations. Over forty unique and innovative aircraft are on display. Realistic flight simulators and open aircraft cockpits (including the popular Boeing 747 exhibit) ensure that every visitor gains a pilot’s eye view of the world of aviation. In every imagination there is a spark of fascination with flight. The Hiller Aviation Museum is a place where that spark is ignited and aviation comes alive. Through our Invention and Exploration Programs, you can see and touch real aircraft, sit in an airline cockpit, hold the parts of a piston engine in your hands and experience realistic flight simulation from the pilot’s seat.
