This two building museum is well put together on explaining the history of the involvement of women pilots serving in transporting goods and equipment in WWII to present day. There is no cost for admissions. A gift shop is on location and the museum does hit the road for air shows and schools. If you are into RVing the museum has also paired up with Harvest Host. I do recommend stopping by for a visit if you are in the area.
We had a great learning experience at the WASP Museum. It is very modern and they continue to add on. I’m sure we will be back! Very nice staff.
A great piece of WWII history. A great museum showcasing the little known history of the gals who contributed to the war effort - with little to no recognition for their contributions until thirty or more years after the fact. My dad was a basic flight instructor there for nine months, up until the training facility was shut down. I donated a few things he had saved as momentos of his time serving there as a young man. He told stories of his time there the rest of his life. If you are an American military history buff, or an aviation aficionado, this place is a must see! Five GOLD Stars!
So glad there is a place that honors the women who served and who helped inspire others to follow. Plus, it is also a Harvest host for RVer's.
I came here with my father and uncles (all are Army Vets) just the other day. I love history and it was awesome to learn about how women participated in the war effort during WWII. Just seeing these displays and reading about some of the women and men, was cool. Especially reading about the Black women who became pilots went on to do big and amazong things for the military of the United States. If you have not been before, I HIGHLY recommend taking a drive to Sweetwater and taking the tour of this awesomely amazing place. Learn your history and how women, white and black, contributed to the military and the war effort. This is especially gr8 for little girls who have dreams of becoming a pilot or astronuat. Enjoy the photos 😊
Unbelievable!!! What an amazing way to honor and showcase what these amazing women had done for our country and women in general. Everything was beautifully displayed and organized. It was very clear how to follow the order of everything. They had interactive flight link trainers and flight simulators. Everything was perfectly clean. No fingerprints to be seen in any of the glass display. I spend so much time here looking around.
What a fantastic place! I loved hearing about these ladies and their sense of fun and determination to help before the armed forces would officially allow women to fly. The whole museum is done with love and a sense of fun. There is a video that is great to watch at the beginning and a super fun high-tech "training room" in the back that is really neat. And all for a free museum! I just loved the pictures of the ladies in their older years in hangar 2 - what a joyful bunch! And if you like this, go see the Silent Wings Museum in Lubbock. First, there's a better example of the trainers they used there, plus I wonder if some of these ladies towed the men in the gliders at Silent Wings. Regardless, don't miss this museum if you are nearby!
Hidden gem in Texas. The museum is in two hangers. One mostly has artifacts and items like flight suits and other items donated to the museum from the pilots and from the airfield. It also tells the story of WASP and of a lot of the individual women pilots. The other hanger houses aircraft and other larger items. Well worth the drive and a visit.

Alright this is a great stop, I was going to boondock at the damn but saw this spot on the free camping app. I was getting closer to needing a dump station anyway and on average they charge $15. To empty your blackwater. This place is only $15. A ni
