MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND OPEN HOUSE AT THE WARBIRD MUSEUM

Final preparations are underway for The Valiant Air Command Warbird Museum's annual open house Memorial Day Weekend, May 28th, 29th and 30th.

There will be free admission to the museum for all military, active or retired. Also, all Brevard County residents will be admitted free. ID is required. We will be celebrating the 100th Anniversary of Naval Aviation.

In addition to the vintage aircraft and memorabilia that will be on display, there will be several fly-bys throughout the weekend and special veteran guests that flew many of the aircraft will be on hand to answer questions and tell of their exploits flying legendary warbirds. Along with food and entertainment, there will be an antique car showing and airplane modeler exhibits. "The Beach," 98.5 and their Tiki hut remote will be here on Saturday. Finally, "Florida Biplanes" will be offering rides in their WACO Bi-plane as well as Bristow Air Academy in one of their helicopters.

The museum is located at 6600 Tico Road at the Space Coast Regional Airport. Open house hours will be 9AM-5PM, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. The "Tico Belle," our famous WWII Normandy invasion veteran C-47, will also be available for rides. Sign up now! Our phone number is 321-268-1941.


Orange County Residents To Get Special Free Admission to the Valiant Air Command Warbird Museum

All Orange County residents will also be admitted free with a copy of the Orlando Sentinel Ad, about the Open House, that will be run several times during the week prior to 28 May.

In addition to the vintage aircraft and memorabilia that will be on display, there will be several fly-bys throughout the weekend and special veteran guests that flew many of the aircraft will be on hand to answer questions and tell of their exploits flying legendary warbirds.
