You can take a tour inside or walk over the wing of some and get a close-up view. Visit the pilot and crew and maybe you can even sit in the pilot’s seat! Historians will give tours and short talks about many of the aircraft.

Lone Star Flight Museum

www.lsfm.org

The Lone Star Flight Museum began as a private aircraft collection in June 1985. The acquisition of more aircraft quickly led to a search for a new home. In 1990, construction began at Galveston’s Scholes Field. They are  beginning a new phase in their operations as they begin construction on an impressive new facility located at Ellington Airport.

Today the Museum displays over 40 historically significant aircraft and over 1500 artifacts that demonstrate the quantum leap in technology – from gliders to space – over the past century. The Museum’s flying collection of award winning aircraft annually logs more than 40,000 cross-country air miles to participate in flying displays and air shows. The Lone Star Flight Museum will participate with both flying and static displays during the Airshow.

Vietnam War Flight Museum

www.vietnamwarflight.com

The Vietnam War Flight Museum was founded in 2002 by Houston aviator Rick Sharpe and is dedicated to educating the public about the service and sacrifice to the United States by the veterans of the Vietnam War. The collection has a Douglas A-1D Skyraider, Bell AH-1 Cobra helicopter, MiG-15, MiG-17, MiG-21 and a Folland Gnat T.1, all of which are maintained in airworthy condition and are flown in airshows in the Texas/Louisiana area.

The static aircraft include a Grumman S-2 Tracker and the original prototype for the Cessna O-1/L-19 Bird Dog. The aircraft are displayed and maintained at the Vietnam War Flight Museum hangar located on Ellington Airport, Houston Texas.

National USA Forces Museum

The soldiers on the ground are remembered with display areas featuring military reenactor groups who bring their authentic World War II military vehicles, equipment and uniforms. See how the man in the trenches lived during World War II. The reenactors also take part in the Airshow providing ground activity during many of the battle recreations.

The 6th Cavalry Historical Association

www.6thcav.net

Inspired by the colorful history of Patton’s “Household Cavalry” during WWII, the 6th Cavalry adopts the name the illustrious General George S.Patton bestowed upon the mechanized unit he organized to pierce into German occupied territory. Its primary mission — to scout out enemy activity and radio back with intelligence on enemy positions. We take great pride in acquiring, preserving and restoring examples of the very same military vehicles utilized by the original 6th Cavalry.
