The Military Aviation Museum is home to one of the largest private collections of World War I and World War II era military aircraft in the world.
Each of our planes has been beautifully restored to its prior military condition, using original parts whenever possible.
Most of the planes are airworthy and flown at the museum during flight demonstrations and at air shows throughout the year. Some being the last flight-ready aircraft of their time, and all of them being one of a kind.
The museum is open to all. General admission applies for those arriving via ground transportation.
Come out and see the heritage and machinery of World War I and World War II!

Experience Open-Cockpit Flight
Have you imagined yourself in the open-air cockpit of a WWII warbird with the wind in your face and the roar of the engine in your ears? At the Military Aviation Museum, you can turn your daydreams into reality.
Photographers love the bird’s eye view of Virginia Beach from the open cockpit, but this ride offers so much more than that. There is a sense of freedom and adventure when flying in these iconic aircraft that can’t be replicated. Book early to reserve your day and flight time.
Flights are available on weekends only, from May 1st 2023.
To schedule a ride for yourself call the museum’s gift shop or purchase through our online store.
