No. 1 BFTS Museum Inc. — Attraction in Terrell

Such a great museum and piece of History well worth visiting and donating to. This location is accessible friendly and has multiple entrances along with staff to help. This location is not as easily visible from the airport but from the outside of the airport it is. Getting a lift from the FBO is possible if they have staff on hand and a golf cart. They maintain very nice bathrooms and they are very clean and well stocked. The facility overall is very clean and very well maintained. The museum is very quality and the items they have in the museum are very historically accurate and important to the history of the field. Overall it is a very great museum with a large part of history that needs to be maintained. The staff is super friendly and they are a big part of what makes this place special. They are nothing but helpful. I will definitely be back anytime I get a chance...

If you are interested in WW II history, military history, or just north central Texas history, you want to check this place out. In WW II when the Germans were invading European countries, Britain did not have a place to train pilots. So, Roosevelt quietly let Churchill send their pilots to the US to train as the US originally wanted to appear "neutral."

A former mayor of Terrell was one of those British pilots who returned to Terrell after the war and married...

Great local history! I've been to this museum at least 3 times in the past 3 years. They have recently updated the inside of the museum and the cohesiveness of the items inside are much more noticeable. My children as well as adult family enjoyed visiting this piece of local history. The curators are usually on site and very knowledgeable about the items on display. Wonderful place to visit for more information on an important part of our WW2 history. Was a little boring for my youngest child (2 at the time) but there is so much here for everyone else it is worth the visit. I'll go back...
