Museo dell'aviazione Glenn L Martin

Esperienza fantastica: Molto educativo e divertente sia per i bambini che per gli adulti

Esperienza fantastica: Ho davvero apprezzato la mia visita al Museo dell'Aeronautica Glenn L Martin, le esposizioni erano molto interessanti e il viaggio verso la linea di volo per vedere i veri aerei / jet / elicotteri è stato fantastico. Consiglio vivamente di visitare il museo e di tenere d'occhio eventi speciali come l'Open Cockpit Event del 21 settembre. Tornerò presto.

Esperienza fantastica: Great aviation and local history. Wonderful artifacts, super friendly staff, and such great insight into the Martin Company’s contributions to the Second World War.

Esperienza fantastica: Amazing staff and wonderful planes, the young men that there were very respectful and did a great job

Esperienza positiva: Wonderful museum with so much local and military history! Many opportunities to learn and activities to participate in throughout the year. Perfect place for all Scouts to learn aviation, engineering, and STEM while engaging in community history and service.

Esperienza fantastica: Awesome. We bought some toy airplanes for the kids and they learned a lot about our past while looking through the museum.

Esperienza fantastica: Great place for learning about aviation history and how martin airport helped during the wars.

Esperienza fantastica: Fleet Week was amazing...I enjoyed everything!! I barely noticed the heat. I will be back next year, especially now that I know where to go

Esperienza fantastica: Terrific museum for the aviation buff or child at heart. Excellent history of the Martin company as well as notable aircraft on display. Volunteers are extremely knowledgeable and personable.

Esperienza fantastica: You can feel the passion of the volunteers through every inch of this museum. It's got some really cool, rare planes but it really spotlights the people that made the planes at Martin. It has amazing original artifacts from the old factory. Bill was a great guide!

Esperienza fantastica: It's a small museum, with hopes of expanding, and is packed with the history of Glen L. Martin Co.'s major roles in building aircraft during World War II and space shuttles, such as Gemini and Apollo, as part of the USA's participation in space exploration. My husband's grandfather (Charles Tolson), worked at Martin's during those times, and kept many personal documents and photos, which my husband donated to the museum. There is a special interactive room for kiddos where they can explore Martin's history in aircraft at their own level. There are no fees, though gratuities are appreciated. P.S. I grew up near Martin's and remember arms that descended over Eastern Ave. that paused traffic in order for planes to taxi to additional hangars across the street from the airport and sea planes that landed in Martin's lagoon.

Esperienza fantastica: I don't think many people know this museums even exists but it's a lot of fun! There's a small museum that's very kid friendly and throughout the year they have some really cool events!

Esperienza fantastica: Fantastic museum! Lovely interior exhibit on the history of the airport and the Martin facilities there with a nice gift shop plus an amazing flight line of historic military aircraft. Truly could not imagine a cooler small aviation museum. Volunteers were generous with their time and stories. If you’re willing to walk circa 20 odd minutes it’s easy enough to reach from the MARC station on the other side of the airport with sidewalks available all the way around. If you arrive early due to the train schedule, there’s a waiting area with a small couch inside the building that hosts the museum (which is shared with a few other businesses).

Esperienza positiva: We went for fleet week so it s free. There were shuttles up the street. Small wait time. IDK the policy when there is not an event. All in all it was interesting inside & out. We got to see the planes outside!

Esperienza fantastica: What an amazing museum run by an amazing team of volunteers, all fellow aviation aficionados that put in so much of their personal time and energy, they deserve a round of applause. The interesting part is that the museum is part of an active airport and ANG airbase. This has both disadvantages and advantages.. The story told by 1 of the volunteers on the early days of Glenn L. Martin up to the fantastic line-up of aircraft outside and some beautiful oil paintings, photos and aircraft engines make for a very nice half day out for the whole family, incl. kids from say 6-7 years old. The whole place is a full of history. The ramps used by the Martin flying boats into the river from the airport as well as at the (now) LMTAS site are still visible! Albeit the latter one only from the air (see insider tip #2).. They are restoring 2 very rare planes: a Martin Mauler and a Martin Seamaster (yes, that jet-powered flying boat, whooaah!), for which they get zero support from any government or commercial body, so please donate or support them in another way to avoid these unique pieces of modern history getting lost forever. Some of these planes have only 1 or 2 remaining worldwide. I'm counting on all of you out there to come and enjoy and support them cause I plan to come back in a decade or so and see the Martin Mars on the tarmac! :-) Insider tip #1: If you're not from the area; make sure you eat a lovely fresh crab cake sandwich while you're here! Tip #2: Check with Brett Aviation next door for offers via Groupon on a scenic tour over the Chesapeake Bay and Baltimore centre. They might even give you the controls for a spell! Thanks Paul (2×, also Paul from SA at Brett's), Jim and everyone else I met Tuesday! Regards, Bart

Esperienza fantastica: My mom work at Glenn Marten for two years,, 1943,,44.. She was a riveter,, She was 18-19 yrs old at the time.. From Rockcrusher Rd, Lexington, NC.. She had never been out of Davidson Co.,, She live at 3219 Faster Ave, Baltimore, Md. She met my dad,, he was on 30 day leave before heading out to Eng. for the invasion of Normandy.. He made it home,, So here I am..

Esperienza fantastica: Really cool place with lots of interesting local history to learn about. Take the trip out to the tarmac with the old planes. Staff are knowledgeable and happy to share what they know.

Esperienza fantastica: I was disappointed the only Martin aircraft on display was a 202, and no Martin seaplanes. Most of the display aircraft on the ramp tour are Vietnam War vintage. The museum itself did have lots of info and pictures of their famous seaplanes they built.

Esperienza fantastica: Getting up close to those beautiful historic Artifacts is a pleasure all should indulge

Esperienza fantastica: Nice little train garden during during the Christmas season. The museum was very informative too. My son was very interested with it all.

Esperienza fantastica: Nice little jaunt through WWII Aviation history. It's a small museum at the Martin State Airport. Definitely a must for aviation geeks.

Esperienza fantastica: Me and the family went for Santa and the train garden. Great place, lots of history.

Esperienza fantastica: Always a great time. Knowledgeable volunteers. Kids both love sitting in the cockpit of the planes

Esperienza fantastica: Nice little aviation museum.

Esperienza fantastica: A great stop, highly recommended, all the staff we came across are friendly and informative. Even meet the founder who was eager and willing to talk about his collection. If your in the area or driving to a near attraction stop in and take the tour.

Esperienza fantastica: Visited the Train Garden at Martin's Avaition Museum. It was gorgeous and they included a bunch of local landmarks.

Esperienza fantastica: Great little museum. Superb historical aircraft. Be sure to talk up the docents. They love what they do and have a lot of knowledge.

Esperienza fantastica: My older son asked to go somewhere to learn about airplanes while we were in Baltimore.The Glenn L. Martin Aviation Museum fulfilled his request and went beyond our expectations! He learned about Rosie the Riveter and Morse code. The outdoor tour of planes was fascinating. Paul's knowledge and passion for aviation was evident. He took the time to answer any questions my son asked. My son enthusiastically reviewed his time there as "Amazing!" Aviation fans of any age need to visit this museum.

Esperienza fantastica: When we came over to see the Train Garden the security guard at the gate reccomended the tour. He was great! She has a real sense of pride for the complex and the Museum. We are so happy he took the time to reccomend it. It really peaked our 8 yr old daughter's curiosity. We truly enjoyed our tour. The people here are wonderful and informative. They really gave us a sense of togetherness. Our whole family enjoyed it and the train garden. Thank you to all!

Esperienza fantastica: A fantastic aviation museum with a GREAT Line-up of airplanes! A must see! The best part was a guided tour by Paul, a Martin spokesman who is highly knowledgeable about the history and airplanes on the tarmac. First we drove behind him through airport security and then he told us the full history of each plane. A great presentation. The volunteers at Glen Martin are highly appreciated! Many thanks!

Esperienza fantastica: Always have a good time at this local historical site. The people who volunteer at the museum are very friendly and knowledgable.

Esperienza fantastica: Amazing place to visit and learn about aviation history Great tour!!. All of the volunteers were friendly and helpful.

Esperienza fantastica: A must see experience of Maryland aeronautical history and aircraft developed and produced in Maryland. If you recognize the current Lockheed - Martin corporate name and its place in aeronautics, as well as, aerospace then a visit here is a must see experience.

Esperienza fantastica: Beautiful hidden museum. It took a little finding in the parking lot. The sign is small and not over the door but it is well worth a stop. The planes are great and just so cool to hear about this little part of Baltimore history!!

Esperienza fantastica: Good times. We built a B-26 Bomber

Esperienza fantastica: Very welcoming staff. Really enjoyed our visit here. Signed up email for events- we'll definitely be coming back

Esperienza fantastica: Very interesting and I informative. Many displays and vintage aircraft. Glen L. Martin at its Midder River plan well represented as well as it's contribution to WW2.

Esperienza fantastica: Great history of Martin airplanes and their role from WWII thru the Vietnam war. Commercial aircraft too. An awesome line up of airplanes and helicopters that you can climb into and explore. Very knowledgeable staff and tour guides. Many have actual flight time in the aircraft. Planes are actually restored there by former crew and engineers. Amazing lineup.

Esperienza fantastica: My dad worked at Martin's during the war, it's interesting to see all the exhibits, plus the Commemorative Air Force B24 & B17 are cool.

Esperienza fantastica: People were extremely friendly, above and beyond. Was interesting to look at the beautiful planes up and personal and to learn about each planes individual history. Definitely recommend coming here.

Esperienza fantastica: A lot of history packed into a small spot. Worth the time.

Esperienza fantastica: Great walk through history. Located at Martin State Airport, connected to MdANG at Warfield Airbase. The museum centers around The Glenn L. Martin Company (now Lockheed Martin). They also invite the Commemorative Air Force once or twice a year. Great time!

Esperienza fantastica: Great place to visit and learn about aviation history, Martin,WWII and about the Rosey the rivitors

Esperienza fantastica: Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Be sure to catch both the Open Cockpit days and the runway lineups if you can. Super cool and up closer look at aviation history

Esperienza fantastica: Great tour today! Really appreciate the time they took to show us the planes and tell us about the history. Will definitely be going back! Thank you!

Esperienza fantastica: Attended the Thunderbird Air Show. Wandered among the many airplanes and helicopters, met the Thunderbird pilots and ground crew and got autographs.

Esperienza fantastica: Beautiful exhibits for the aviation enthusiast! A must see!

Esperienza fantastica: They must have experienced went for my birthday my flight instructor was Chelsea who was absolutely awesome the whole staff was very very friendly would highly recommend

Esperienza fantastica: Magnificent aviation museum! A buddy and I flew into the Martin State Airport where this is housed and walked over - what a packed museum and ramp full of airplanes! WELL WORTH the very low admission price for this private museum open to the public! The volunteers are THE BEST - Glenn and Burnie were outstanding! I really enjoyed this museum - highly recommended!

Esperienza fantastica: Bottom line: if you're ever near Baltimore and like airplanes, you should visit. The Martin Aviation museum is THE place for those interested in the history of Martin's beautiful aircraft. The museum is constantly evolving and looking to expand, so don't expect a Smithsonian style arrangement. If you want to see the aircraft, make sure to call ahead. Regardless, the exhibit alone (with some incredible tank and wind tunnel models from the seaplanes) is well worth the trip. As a bonus, you can see the A-10s from the Maryland ANG and the old seaplane ramps from when Seamasters and Mariners would taxi in and out of the Martin lagoon.

Esperienza fantastica: Lots of history. Volunteers are well informed and very helpful. Visiting flight line of preserved airplanes is a great time.
