Really great little museum. We spent a couple hours there. Lots to read about the women pilots. It's great for adults. I think kids would get bored because there aren't interactive exhibits.
My favorite things were all the headlines and write-ups from the old newspapers. The pilot who kept landing in cow pastures was a hoot too.
Truly a gem of an aviation museum a short walk away from Tulsa International airport. Not very well known, but so very worth the visit. Small but interesting gift shop. The office personnel down stairs will open up the museum upstairs and it's a self guided tour through many well documented display case. Entire history of women's aviation is covered. A must visit stop for all history buffs and aviation enthusiast
The Ninety Nines Museum of Women Pilots, is small museum but represents a collection that is both world class and worthy of far more attention. I was astounded to find it tucked on the edge of the Oklahoma Will Rogers airport. The club was the first women's flying club in the world. It represents so much for women overcoming bias and demonstrating that they are just as capable as men. Do yourself a favor and visit,. This place deserves far more attention than it gets.
