| Jim Hofner , New York | I've been to the museum a few times, and plan on returning soon. It's amazing what this man did in his relatively short lifetime. He was a real pioneer and doesn't get nearly the credit and recognition that he truly deserves. The museum is getting better with each visit, truly a must see, and a real eye opener of a fascinating individual. 10/05/2007 @ 12:03 [ref: 6370] |

| Benny Adams Center, New York | I had never heard of the Museum until a friend took us there on Saturday June 9, 2007 . It was very interesting to here about that part of American history . We drove all day on Motorcycle , so it was a nice day trip to take . I liked it better than stopping at the winneries . 06/10/2007 @ 15:31 [ref: 5961] |
| tcraftbob , New York | This little museum has come a long way since it was located in the town of Hammondsport; and it is heartening to see that the management is making efforts to improve it all the time. When it first moved to its current location there was an awful lot of space that was filled with things that quite frankly didn't belong; as time passed either the context has been explained, or the artifacts were relegated to less prominence by more 'appropriate' things relating to Curtiss and the birth of the aviation industry. Is this a great museum worth a trip from far, far away? No. If you are passing within a couple of hundred miles and are interested in how America got started in the aviation business, then the side trip is worth your while. And if you are a die-hard Curtiss fan, OR would appreciate the rare behind the scenes look at how these aircraft were designed and built at the dawn of aviation, then the trip becomes becomes worthy of 'destination' status. The workshop is truly, in my humble opinion, the crown jewel of the whole affair, and the volunteer staff goes out of their way to take you right to the action. Of course, if you don't like old airplanes or good wines, then save your time and money - Hammondsport is a charming, cosy, friendly town; a great place to unwind a spell, but not alot to keep the kiddies busy. Take them to Orlando. 12/17/2005 @ 10:39 [ref: 4679] |

| Don Kaake Angelica, NY, New York | I have visited this museum many times and have photos on my website www.angelica14709.com. My most recent photos are of the September 19, 2004 flight of the replica seaplane Curtiss Triad A-1. 10/21/2004 @ 23:18 [ref: 3515] |
| Bonnie Barney Penn Yan, New York | Museum address is Route 54 (not Lake Street, years ago). The restoration shop is fascinating! Active restoration and reconstruction of the earliest planes. New interactive children's aviation activities, and Curtisses' Florida home set opened in 2001. Check their website for special events, motorcycle to plane. 01/25/2002 @ 22:49 [ref: 1814] |
| Michael Lane Buffalo, New York | I brought my wife and oldest son (at the time, he was the only child) to the museum in fall of 1998. I was excited about going because I am an aviation freak, but my wife was luke warm to the idea. Turns out, she left the museum as pleased as I was! Highly recommended to anyone with any sort of interest in aviation. If you are from the area that is local to the museum, you are missing out on some GREAT history!

| John Pittman Charlotte, North Carolina | I went just to satisfy a relative who thought I would enjoy the museum. I'm glad I went. It's not just about aircraft. There are boats, weapons, motorcycles, machinery, a 1940's travel trailer, basicly something for everyone. I ended up taking three rolls of film when I thought I would only take a few shots. The staff members are extremely knowledgable and love to talk. They obviously take great pride in the facility and its contents. 07/18/2000 @ 21:55 [ref: 320] |
