3.3 miles / 7 minutes - The Commemorative Air Force is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving a complete collection of combat aircrafts flown by Allies during World War II. The Centex Wing, located in a 1943 vintage wooden hangar, offers visitors a WW II Artifacts Exhibit and a display dedicated to the Doolittle Raiders. Aircrafts on site include a very rare flying P-39 Bell Airacobra, P-40 Warhawk, Lockheed T-33 jet trainer, PT-17 Stearman WWII trainer, two WW II Liaison spotter planes, and a T-34 Mentor trainer. Replicas include a CAF Japanese "Kate" torpedo bomber and a Japanese Zero, built for the movie Tora, Tora, Tora.

See vintage aircraft including The “Yellow Rose”, a B-25J Mitchell WWII bomber, in an original WWII hangar. A fascinating 5 room museum dedicated to aviation through all eras but primarily WWII. Enjoy the exhibits, but be sure to talk to the museum staff to learn more about the museum and it's supporting members. I have not had the opportunity yet, but you can even schedule a flight experience in some of the aircraft, including the WWII bomber! Unless there has been a change the museum visit is free, donations accepted.
