MICHIGAN’S LARGEST HISTORIC PLANE RIDE DESTINATION
Yankee Air Museum’s historic plane rides feature the B-17 Yankee Lady and B-25 Yankee Warrior bombers, the C-47 Hairless Joe Skytrain, the UH-1 Huey, and the Ford 4-AT-B Trimotor.
Guests can learn about the unique history behind each aircraft and also take a ride in them to fully experience what it was like to fly during those time periods.
Unity In Learning
Unity in Learning brings together three educational institutions: Yankee Air Museum, Ann Arbor Hands On Museum and the Leslie Science & Nature Center, to bring STEAM education to kids in multiple counties.
Together we have created a bridge to hands-on discovery, exploration of the natural world, and experiences that take flight to kids in grades 1-12.
