About Air Zoo

Get ready to lift your spirits at the exciting Air Zoo, where adventure meets science and aviation in a family-friendly environment. This unique attraction is a haven for those who are fascinated by the wonders of flight and the science behind it. Unlike traditional zoos, the Air Zoo doesn't showcase animals but rather showcases incredible aircraft and aviation technology that have soared through the skies.

Families will relish the chance to experience amusement park-style rides, including full-motion flight simulators where aspiring pilots can take the controls. These simulators offer the thrill of 4D missions, making you feel like a true aviator. For those with a sense of nostalgia, the classic bi-planes and a 26-foot indoor Ferris wheel provide a delightful step back in time, all while learning about the rich history of aviation.

For the brave-hearted, the paratrooper jump offers the sensation of weightlessness, simulating the exhilarating experience of jumping out of a plane. Feel the thrill as you float through the air! Additionally, families can take off in a Montgolfier balloon ride, offering a unique perspective of the attraction.

When it's time to unwind, explore the historic aircraft on display and engage in hands-on science experiments that will captivate curious minds. The Air Zoo also offers overnight camps, providing a rare opportunity to sleep under an SR-71 Blackbird. Birthday parties and summer camps add to the variety of experiences available, ensuring a memorable visit for all ages.
