encourages learning by children and adults alike. A ferocious dinosaur offers
greetings in the front walkway; from there, attractive and enticing exhibits
branch out in all directions. There are nine permanent galleries with themes

The centerpiece of this fascinating collection of
antique warbirds is the B-17 Flying Fortress, nicknamed "Chuckie." The B-17
Flying Fortress was used during World War II against the Nazis; Chuckie is
reportedly one of the few surviving planes of its type. 20 or so other
airplanes, as well as a jeep and the Texas Air Command's helicopters, share the
restored B-29 hangar with Chuckie, while display cases show off model planes and
war artifacts.
