Mid America Flight Museum — Attraction in Mount Pleasant

A true gem for any aviation enthusiast... The variety of aircraft is stunning -- from the familiar to something not likely to have been seen before -- and a nice mix of military and general aviation aircraft. The fact nearly all of the collection resides within a climate-controlled building [a building with an aviation history of its own] is a real plus. Documentation on each aircraft is thorough, as well... The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I was also pleasantly surprised to be able to spend time with the Museum Director, an enthusiastic 'aviation geek' like me, who opened up a couple of planes for me to see 'up close and personal'. What a special thrill!

Bottom line? It's a bit of a drive to get there from major Interstates; yet, as a destination, I think it's well worth the time invested. The admission price is a true bargain -- and represents a great value! The city of Liberal also has a unique charm worth experiencing -- and I can say that about this part of...

Scott is a TRUE Aviator and his love for the sky is mesmerizing and absolutely contagious. There are so so so many REALLY old airplanes; beautifully restored and better than ever. The best part is that they aren't just museum trophies. THESE PLANES FLY and FLY OFTEN. This is an actual working, flying, operational marvel and an absolute MUST SEE. You will see airplanes in the construction phase being brought back to life right there on the property. You can tour the inside of many of them. This is not a cold, rigid, hands off kind of place. Walking around and under these HUGE masterpieces is nothing short of incredible. It's an experience children will never forget and I feel certain, there are some little minds just begging for a new "I want to be an airplane pilot when I grow up" obsession. Honestly, I'm almost 50 and this experience makes me want to become a pilot when I grow up. You JUST GOTTA SEE...

What an experience! We were greeted immediately by our car by a nice man who took us up to the front entrance and then started showing us around. He was very knowledgeable, took his time explaining things & even let us look inside a couple planes. What I loved most was how everyone talked so highly of the owner, especially the gentlemen with us. From what we saw & what he said, the owner seems like a genuine human being. Not greedy at all! I mean to visit was completely FREE. They could easily charge $10/$20 per person. Also, we wanted to buy a shirt to support them but their card machine wasn’t working. They just let us have it. Most places would just apologize for the inconvenience while you put the merchandise back. I highly recommend visiting this place even if you aren’t interested in planes like me!! 10/10...
