Pedal Plane Rides

September 9, 2023 @ 11:00 am – 4:00 pm

Give the aspiring young aviator in your life their first taste of flight with a ride on one of our brand-new pedal planes!

Thanks to the generosity of the Carolyn Sifton Foundation, and the talent of two dedicated volunteers who built the planes, we’re excited to add this experience to our museum.

HOW TO RIDE

Pedal plane rides will be available (subject to weather and operational capacity) from 11 am to 4 pm.

No booking is necessary and rides are included with admission.

Recommended for young pilots 2 – 6 years old.
