Tulsa Air and Space Museum

I'm not sure I went to the same museum as the other reviewers did or the other reviewers haven't been to a good air and space museum but the TASM was completely underwhelming and overpriced compared to other similar museums I've been to.While they do offer some mid range simulators, many of the displays weren't working or were off (space simulators and astronaut gloves).I also would have loved to see a true flight simulator in there, especially on the American Airlines aircraft. The aircraft appears to be in some sort of renovation and there isn't a ton of info on the display.Would be really neat to have replica cockpits of the jet with simulators as well. Much of the "more exciting" aircraft were look only or do not enter displays. I think it's a good museum for those with no real exposure to aircraft or a beginner museum but feel this museum could have so much more potential.

Pros: Came with my sister in law to see a show at the planetarium. It was totally sold out. Apparently lots of people know about this place. It's so nice Tulsa has a planetarium. Cons: out in the middle of nowhere where?

We visited the Tulsa Air and Space Museum earlier this wk and Wow! It's a great experience for the whole family! The museum provides aeronautical history along with vintage aircraft, interactive simulators, and memorabilia. They even have an F14 Tomcat which is the airplane flown in the movie Top Gun! They did a wonderful job paying homage to the great men & women in the field of aviation - those who created the technology, those who became pilots & astronauts, and those who serviced the aircrafts! The 19,000 sqft facility was immaculate and the staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Due to our time restraint, we spent approx. an hour at the museum and didn't have time to tour the planetarium. It's self-guided so you can stay as long as you like. Prices vary @ Adults 11., Seniors and Military 9., Youth 8., Children u see 4 FREE. Enjoy this beautiful piece of history! Also, all maintenance is provided by AA!

We had a great time on our field trip with our daughter! Gary was a wonderful tour guide, very knowledgeable and we appreciate his service to our country so much! The Planetarium was also great! The kids made launching rockets and had a great time outside testing how high they would go with the instructor!

Our visit for the second time on a school field trip. This is an educational, exciting museum and planetarium. There is plenty to read and learn. A lot of interesting exhibits. I do recommend!!

Such a neat experience, I was like a kid in a candy shop! So much to, not only see, but to experience. The staff was friendly & the museum itself did not disappoint, it actually exceeded my expectations. The planetarium was an awesome experience as well. Note - the planetarium was about the history of flight, not about the universe or space, but still very amazing to watch!

You better call ahead to see if they are open. Before I Ubered over I checked the website to verify hours. I walked in and it was kind of strange. It looked closed. I double checked the doors and I was there during operating hours and nothing indicated it was closed. I walked around the museum but it was hard to see the exhibits as they were all pushed together. I finally found someone who said it was closed for an event. She didn't know why nothing said it was closed. As I waited in the rain for my Uber, two other groups came to see the museum. One even bought their tickets online. Poor dad had to explain to their child why they couldn't see airplanes. I had really looked forward to seeing their planes and I wasted $30 on Uber there and back.

We've visited a lot of air and space museums... though only a couple during a global pandemic... These folks have a very nice collection, including a Top Gun style F-14 and lots of Apollo missions NASA stuff. There were not many people there when we visited because of everything going on. They were doing everything they could to make sure they kept everyone safe. The only thing perhaps a bit lacking for us was personality amongst the docents.... most times we find folks who are overjoyed to talk about the collections they have. Aside from that, we enjoyed our visit!

It was a great time. There is a lot of reading and several of the interactive items need to be repaired, but it was a good time. The planetarium show was great!

While in Tulsa for work I brought my family for a small vacation when I wasn't in meetings. It wasn't easy keeping two adult children entertained each day but we tried this place due to the fact that the two guys love planes and such. We weren't quite sure what to expect. Everyone loved it! The price was incredible too. We saw the planetarium and the museum for the price of one. Planetarium was just ok. Kids had never been to one so it was a first experience. They weren't awed by it but enjoyed it. There is a gentleman that works there that was a plethora of information not found with the displays! Kids and husband were like kids again on a playground! Lots of stuff to do that's "interactive". Went beyond expectations! We had fun!!
