Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome - Museum in Red Hook - 9 Norton Rd, USA

What a great place this is! The Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome has a fantastic museum and a great air show. The museum features the history of early aircraft with both real and reproduction airplanes from the early 1900's to the 1940's. The ORA has several hangers full of early aircraft. Displayed along with the early planes are early 20th century cars and motorcycles. They even have an early car made by Sears! Depending on your interest in these subjects you could an hour or more in the museum. The air show is both thrilling and fun to watch. It is easy to watch the planes from the ground and there were plenty of seats available. They have a corny humorous plot that adds to the show. The show not only incorporates vintage aircraft but vintage automobiles and even a WW1 tank. To my knowledge this is the only air show in the US that regularly features these aircraft. If you have any love of history, aviation, or just want to watch an interesting show than this is the place for you.

I'm giving this 5 stars because it's a great organization preserving some awesome pieces of history. That being said, if you're looking for some big, impressive museum, this isn't it. It's $12 per adult for four buildings with planes in it. There's no AC so the buildings are very warm. Doesn't take long to see everything. If you really like old planes, you'll love this. If it's not really your thing, you might not find it worth it.

Must See for techies, steampunk and history buffs. A small, tree-lined campus with hangers FILLED with working, restored 1,2 and 3 winged Aeroplanes. A weekly(seasonal) air show puts these relics in the air!!! A great 2-4 hour diversion in a beautiful valley setting. Food available.

This was a fantastic airshow! Lots of vintage planes flying plus some added acting. Learned a lot and had fun doing it. I highly recommend!

We had a lovely time at the old Rhinebeck Aerodrome. We mainly went to see the air show. It was fun to watch and learn about the early aircraft that were being flown.

Outstanding place in every way. Staff was polite and friendly. Museum was amazing and the airshow was stunning. Rarely do you get to see WW1 planes flying like this and in a setting that is as beautiful as this. The skit that went along with the airshow was hilarious. Also flew in a 1929 American Standard over the Hudson River Valley.

Loved everything, entertainment for the young and old. The air show was fabulous, one of a kind event.

Fun day watching the planes. Would definitely return. The museum is also very cool. Great to learn about the history of aircraft!
