Museum of Flying

This museum, located at the historic Santa Monica Airport, may be diminutive but it is jam-packed with fun exhibits. It's kid-and-adult-friendly with knowledgeable docents, vintage planes, and interactive displays. Kids can climb into the cockpits of a couple of planes. There is a flight simulator although height requirements are in place. The entry fee is about $10 per person; a little less for the wee ones.
