We hadn't planned on going that day, so we got there a little late and didn't know how long it would take to go through, but it only took about three hours and we read all the signs too. The volunteers were very helpful and nice. They offered to give us a tour and show us the ropes. The signs that the museum had by the planes were very insightful and interesting. I would absolutely go back.
What an amazing place. We were in town for a rocket launch and decided to go to the museum. I am a marine and I was a crew chief on a CH 53 Helicopter from 1976 to 1980. The place was amazing, They had a Fokker Triplane that I was able to walk right up to and touch. They had information on all of the aircraft from WW1 to the present. We spent several hours walking around, then I found a ch53 helicopter in the hanger. Apparently this one had come in two weeks before and was their new pride and joy. My good fortune. I was very pleased to be able to walk right up to it and have my picture taken At the end I did 30 minutes in the flight simulator on a Cessna 172. That's a lot of fun.
Great museum. A lot of planes in hangars to see . Docents ready to explain planes and a tours.
A great museum many many aircraft to view and many historical items, plan on spending the day and veteran discounts and senior just ask. this is just a fraction of what they have
You have to take a day to just see some of the war birds at Tyco Airport and more come out and enjoy your selves and enjoy all the amenities of the Airport
I had no idea what to expect but this was actually a really cool museum for anyone interested in aviation. Entirely volunteer run and so much to see! I recommend dressing appropriately and bringing water if you're going on a hot day as much of the museum is in the hangars outside. A great way to spend a few hours getting to see and learn about all sorts of aircrafts.
Located op an next to Space Coast Regional Airport is this museum with two hangars packed mat military aircraft -- an a few more outside as well. The staff is knowledgeable an interesting to talk to about the planes (an a few helicopters) an sometimes there own experience with flight oder on a aircraft carrier. It is a impressive collection mat friendly folk.
Love love love this place! Came here while visiting Titusville for the day. Staff super Friendly and knowledgeable. So much fantastic military history to be seen. A must see if in the area- besides NASA of course
This is a must visit for any aviation fan. I came here with my family when visiting the Kennedy Space Center. We were looking for something to do on the way home and discovered this gem from a hotel brochure. Located in Titusville at the Regional Airport, the museum consists of an entry area, gift shop, and three hangars to tour along with some planes on the exterior. There are A LOT of amazing aircraft you can look at, touch, and see some amazing restoration work. The first plane we saw was rescued from the bottom of Lake Michigan. The tour guides are plentiful, knowledgeable, and helpful to tell you all about these amazing aircraft. Children pay $5 to get in, Adults was $18 I believe with a coupon from the hotel. They were open on Sunday morning when we visited. This was perfect as not every museum we looked for was open this early and we wanted a morning activity. In total we spent about 2 hours here, checking out the different aircraft, talking to the guides, and a quick stop at the gift shop.
Had to kill some time before my drive back. Wow what a place. Staff seemed to be super busy at the time so I wasn't able to talk to them but it was cool to see old planes read about all the memorabilia they had. The fact that it's next to an active airfield is very cool as you get to see planes go by while you're looking at planes. Perfect for aviation nerds.
It's not as large as the Wright Patterson AFB museum in Dayton, OH. Nor is it as large as the Pima Air & Space museum in Tucson, AZ. But it is well stocked with plenty of aviation memorabilia and static airplane displays from WW2, Korea and Vietnam. I went on a rainy day and it is the perfect way to get a walk and learn something. Everything is housed indoors, inside 2 large hangars. Admission price for seniors like me, 60 and over, is only $18. I was able to see everything in about 4 hours (I like to read the plaques and other information, not just look at the exhibits). So if you are visiting the Space Coast and the weather is not good for the beach, come spend the day here.
Great place to see aircraft from WWI, WW2, Korea, Vietnam, and beyond. Nice area for artifacts plus a gift shop
Could way to spend a couple hours looking through historical airplanes, many operational and flown in air shows. Some are in need of volunteers willing to help with restoration. Also has two good memorabilia sections that contain things like special operations gear, badges and patches. Many have codes you can scan for more information. Helpful guides share knowledge about airplanes, how they're flown, have they were used in fighting. Mostly American planes or allied forces, some by Russian and German forces. Also memorializes those lost in battle. Has a gift store, snacks room, and several bathrooms. Walking tours, all on flat surfaces and to three buildings.

Valiant Air Command, Inc. Warbird Museum is located in Titusville Florida not too far from the Kennedy Space Center. This museum definitely requires at least a two hour minimum to appreciate all of the displays housed inside and outside the museum. We arrived late in the day. I definitely did not get to appreciate all the museum offers. A return trip is necessary! The museum features all sorts of historic military aircraft, artifacts, exhibits, and displays spanning decades of aviation history. Museum staff have definitely paid attention to the details. I could not see any evidence of decay or rust on the amazing aircraft and vehicles they featured. Even though that are stationed outside, look like they're in pristine condition! If you or your family members appreciate an up close and personal look at military aircraft, this is a place you will want to visit! There is a lovely gift shop with all sorts of clothing and merchandise to commemorate your visit. read more

**INITIAL REVIEW** Historically, Titusville is often linked to space exploration especially NASA. Ergo, it is understandable why most of the educational locales, especially museums, are dedicated to such. However, Titusville has a rich aviation history, too, such as Arthur Dunn Airpark (the first airport in Titusville and North Brevard) serving as a training facility during World War II. In honor and remembrance of Titusville's rich aviation history, let along aviation history in general, Valiant Air Command, Warbird Museum (which I will shorthand to Warbird for the remainder of this review) has educated and enamored patrons on such for over 45 years. And it seems there are no signs of them slowing down, too. Though an address is provided, Warbird consists of three hangers which can house over 100 different aviation aircraft within the heart of Space Coast Regional Airport. First and foremost, it must be noted that its operating hours are very public-friendly as they are open every day of the week with banker's hours: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $25 onsite with two dollars off if purchased online. There is an excellent student and military service discount, too. As for the museum itself, it consists of three hangers and a part of the airstrip that can hold up to around 100 aircraft at a time. Without spoiling all the aircraft on site, there are many recognizable aircraft such as a Blue Angel, Red Baron, F-14 Tomcat Fighter Jet, and even the historic World War II airplane, the Tico Belle. Either through a volunteer or a guided tour, patrons can go inside many of the planes. They are also the ones you ask if you want to fly in one of their active cockpit simulators which gives you the exprience of flying without the risk. There are two "general museum" displays, too. The first is in the initial hanger you enter and has a wide range on aviation including gear, parephanalia, and history. The two displays that gave most of my attention were female pilots during World War II and the Tuskegee Airmen, the first Black American pilots and support regime in U.S. history. And the second is on the Vietnam War. A couple of final notes, there is a canteen for patrons to rest and enjoy refreshments from vending machines, a couple of restrooms for your convenience, and a gift shop filled with items to help commemorate the visit. Overall, Warbird is a fine museum to go to. There is so much to do and so much to see, and at the price point that is high enough to understand as the planes need constant care, but low enough compared to other venues that it is a steal, I suggest Warbird to anyone who like history, muesuems in general, or wants to try or enjoy something unique to Titusville let alone the Space Coast. Not to mention, you can get everything done in one visit so for my initial review, I am giving Warbird five-out-of-five stars. Not many flaws to think of unless you want to consider the drive, but besides that, definitely worth the visit. read more

We came to the monthly "fly in/drive in" breakfast here and had a great time! $12 for a great breakfast and admission to the museum is a great deal. It was packed, for good reason! I definitely recommend arriving early. The breakfast was much nicer than we expected, with homemade scones, pancakes, breakfast potatoes, fruit, breakfast meats, an omelette station, and coffee station! Everyone working the event was very kind and helpful. Most in attendance were veterans and many came in groups. Breakfast was served in one of the airplane hangars at decorated patriotic tables! After eating, we then explored the museum - lots of aircraft to see and information to read! I would recommend allocating ~2 hours for your visit. They have a nice gift shop at the end that had very cute plane themed Hawaiian shirts - perfect for pilots! Highly recommend this event. read more

A great museum with beautifully well-restored aircraft and very friendly staff. This is on the eastern side of the Space Coast Regional Airport. The front face is a single building right off Tico Road. There is a parking lot directly in front of the main building. Tickets cost about $22 per person. There are 3 buildings associated with the museum. The first building has a lot of the more current aircraft. I was truly impressed as they had a F-15, 16, and 22 that were in excellent condition and on loan from other museums. You can walk out of the back of that building onto the concrete apron (make sure you DO NOT go past the signs onto the runway!). The second building had many of the older aircraft from Vietnam to now. They were all in excellent condition. Adjacent to that was a room that had a lot of memorabilia and information on the Vietnam War. Outside the second building (south of it) were 3 other aircraft that you could view. Overall, it is a very nice museum full of information, beautiful planes, and friendly staff. You exit through the gift shop. I plan to visit again and think you should too if you like beautiful aircraft in great condition! read more
When you drive up and see the MiG-21 on the front lawn, you know you are visiting a great warbird museum ! Keep in mind this isn't on a military base, the Valiant Air Command is a 501(c)(3) organization and relies on admissions and donations to keep the lights on and the restoration activities ongoing. Oh yes, and revenue from the incredible gift shop. This museum rivals most government-supported aviation museums, and it is almost exclusively staffed by volunteers. Oh, and the collection of military memorabilia is mind-boggling. In addition to the very remarkable existence of this museum, there are several very rare aircraft on display. First and foremost is the vintage 1942 Valiant Air Command flagship, a C-47A which dropped allied troops in Europe. Another 'rara avis' is a British TT-18 Canberra, which design the United States later bulked up and called it B-57A. Plus a one-of-a-kind F-5E NASA research aircraft. Not pretty. But my favorite is the meticulously restored Grumman F-11A Tiger, complete with shark's teeth and four 20mm cannon. Selfie time ! During my visit, the B-25 Mitchell bomber was fired up and taxied out for takeoff, only to return because of an inop radio. These are the real planes, and the staff here is the real thing. They are dedicated to restoring, preserving, and maintaining their aircraft. It's a pleasure to know people like that. read more

The good people at this museum are doing a great work restoring and maintaining historic, antique aircraft for posterity, and some are still in use -- the Tico Bell (built in 1949) took relief supplies to the Bahamas last week! -- but it really isn't a great time for kids (like the Naval Air Museum in Pensacola). I don't begrudge them the $20 per adult entrance fee because funding seems to be an issue -- the small museum isn't maintained by the Navy like the Pensacola museum. They have donation boxes for certain projects in several places throughout the museum, and the guide indicated that they had to prioritize projects, forcing some to the back burner due to budget constraints. (We found a $2 off coupon in our hotel). There were a few propeller-driven planes but the emphasis seems to be on the evolution of the jet. It includes a few non-US planes for comparison. Our tour guide was an amazing wealth of knowledge...just more than our 5 year old could handle. Yes, there were a few hands-on opportunities (we all climbed aboard the belly of one Korean War jump plane for parachutists and could touch the actual controls in the cockpit of one partial plane, plus the kids got inside 2 more and could ride a plane-shaped peddle car), but he was whining 20 minutes into our 2+ hour tour. This museum would be great for history buffs and airplane enthusiasts who want to get up close to photograph or touch the exhibits. read more
Wow! What a unique and well done museum. This military aviation museum has a ton of unique planes, military history exhibits and a restoration section that you can watch them fully restore planes to the tiniest detail. One word of advice is to talk to the volunteer guides that are walking around. That is what ended up making our visit so special! They are incredibly knowledgeable and often have a direct tie to some of the pieces in the collection. They also have a very large gift shop and a few vending machines for snacks or drinks. Admission is a bit high, but you can find a coupon on their website. read more

The museum is really worth a visit while you are in Orlando. Very close to Kennedy Space Center, it can be seen in 2 to 3 hours, but really you can spend an entire morning of afternoon there. The museum consists in three hangars, that are divided in everything up to Korean War, another one for Vietnam War and another one for restoration that I was not able to visit. The whole place is maintained by veterans and donations, and I must say, it's in an impressive excellent condition for the facilities and specially the planes. I have visited museums like the American Hangar in Washington DC that is impressive but this one gives you a different experience as you can go literally around, behind and even inside one C-47!. The museum guides, all veterans, are super friendly and have deep knowledge in all the planes and history about them. Highly recommend to take some time and ask them about it, they seem to enjoy what they are doing. You don't need to be a war fan or a veteran to enjoy this museum, just to see the beauty of engineering in those planes is well worth the time of visiting this museum!. read more
