Kids Flight Zone | The Museum of Flight
Kids of all abilities can explore our children's play area located in the Side Gallery, adjacent to the Great Gallery. Young intrepid flyers can strap into flight harnesses to test their piloting skills in one of two hang gliding simulators. An aircraft instrumentation area helps kids learn what it takes to control a flying machine. Sit in the cockpits and operate the controls of a real Rotorway Scorpion helicopter, Thorp T-18 homebuilt aircraft, and a P-47D replica. Conduct high-speed aerodynamic experiments examining the performance of a variety of shapes in a wind machine.
Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.
With working models of engines, see what keeps a plane roaring and see how aircraft are built with a close-up view of flying grade materials, components, and fasteners. Younger children of preschool age can taxi by a mini-air traffic control tower with plush airplane toys on a soft runway floor mural.
Take your pick of several coloring sheets. Or Make Your Own Art Gallery magnet activity where you can pick from several items from the Museum's Collection to place into your 'Gallery.'
