Arrival Tips
Innovations in Flight is one of our most popular annual events.  Please be aware of high-volume attendance and allow for additional time for parking and security screening. In the unlikely event that the parking lot is full, we will temporarily close the parking lot until enough cars have departed. If the parking lot is closed, we will post on the Museum's Twitter when it closes and reopens.
