A wonderful experience. Tour guides offer a unique experience giving detailed info on the mission of the Naval Air Station, the life of the people who served and their families, the aircraft that operated there and more. You get to sit inside a real cockpit of the P-3 Orion, see inside the engine that powered it. Outside the museum stands a P-3 Orion aircraft, and a P-2 Neptune guards the main entrance to the landing. Visit the memorial gardens that stand as memorials to crews that gave their lives in defense of this country. Learn about how British Royal Navy pilots were trained here during WWII. They also have 2 flight simulators where you get to fly your choice of over 100 airplanes, and fly out of and into just about any airport around the world with full instruction of an experienced simulator pilot to guide you through the entire flight. If you enjoy anything about the history of the base, mission or people and their contributions to this country from World War II and beyond, then this place is a must...
