During the summer months we sponsor Open Cockpit Days or OCDs. These family friendly events provide many opportunities for visitors to see inside the cockpits of airplanes, visit with pilots who flew the plans, visit our displays inside the museum and displays in the Air Park.
If you would like to volunteer to help, just call the museum and leave a message for President Jeff Isenberger.
