Pacific Aviation Museum

General Admission: Your experience begins in Hanger 37, a 42,000 square foot former seaplane hangar that survived the December 7, 1941 attack. Transportation to Ford Island is via a shuttle bus which will make a brief stop at the USS Battleship Missouri.

After arrival in the Pacific Aviation Museum's lobby, you will enter a 200-seat theater where you will view a 10-minute movie covering the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor.

Leaving the theater, you will enter a corridor that sets the stage with sound effects and photos of what life was like on December 7th, 1941. Hangar 37 features full diorama exhibits, period and reproduction aircrafts, and a movie presentation. The museum also spotlights the extraordinary achievements of air crews, aviation engineers, aircraft assembly line workers and ground crews as well.



Pacific Aviation Museum
Aviators Tour: This tour begins with preferred seating for the 10-minute movie covering the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. At the conclusion of the film, your tour guide will lead your group through the following exhibits:
  • An authentic WWII Mitsubishi Zero.
  • The actual Aeronca that was being flown above Oahu by a father and son when the attack commenced.
  • A B-25 replica of the Doolittle plane
  • A Wildcat
  • The Stearman that President George W. Bush first soloed in
  • An SBD
  • A P40
  • The remains of the Zero that crash landed on the island of Ni'ihau following the attack

The tour will then conclude with an outside orientation on how the attack occurred and the true purpose of the famous tower.



Interactive Simulators
Recommended! All visitors have the opportunity to become a WWII pilot in one of the museum's six interactive simulators ($20 additional charge), and enjoy a delicious lunch in the museum's restaurant, Blue Heaven Café . The museum's store features "everything to do with aviation" and the December 7th, 1941 Pearl Harbor attacks.

Nice tour
Nice tour - interesting tidbits along the way. I think the Aviator's Tour is worth the extra. Though I am not an aviator, I thought you get more from the tour with a guide than without one. Turns out my tour was for me only - so I missed ...More
