Also, take a vintage WWII airplane ride on a PT-19 Cornell open cockpit aircraft or a  SNJ-5/AT-6 "Texan" aircraft! Get a 20 minute ride on the Ventura County coastline or along the mountains for only $250 (PT-19) or $325 (SNJ-5)! Or try the P-51 Mustang Warbird for $1,000! What a thrill!

Docents are extremely enjoyable to speak with as they have a lot of history to share at this museum. There are 2 hangars, the main one housing the historical exhibits and items as well as some of the aircraft, and the 2nd one is a maintenance/refurbishment facility. One fun highlight of the museum is walking on board a C-46 Commando Transport aircraft as you'll see in the second video below!
