"Our museum is part of the nationwide, nonprofit, Commemorative Air Force," Fossenkemper said. "We are telling the incredible story through exhibits and tours of how air power has played a major role in helping to protect America for more than 100 years."
In addition to dozens of historic aircraft on display, the museum also offers rides in a B17, B25, C47, C45, T6 Texan and Stearman Biplane.
“It's a great outing for Fountain Hills families and their out-of-town guests,” continued Fossenkemper.
Located at Greenfield and McKellips in Mesa, the Air Base Arizona Flying Museum is open Wednesday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Museum tickets and information can be found at azcaf.org.
