Prairie Aviation Museum in Bloomington, IL Is Must-See Midwest Air Museum

By Carmelo Turdo
The next stop on the Aero Experience Midwest Air Museum road trip was the Prairie Aviation Museum in Bloomington, IL.  Open Tuesday-Sunday, this museum offers a presentation of aviation history, primarily from the surrounding Illinois region, as well as interactive displays, flight simulators and a Link trainer.  The air park contains a variety of well-maintained military aircraft, including an A-4M Skyhawk, A-7A Corsair II, F-4N Phantom II, F-14D Tomcat, F-100C Super Sabre, T-33A Shooting Star, T-38A Talon, UH-1H Iroquois, and AH-1J SeaCobra.  A dedicated group of volunteers have made this museum a Midwest air museum must-see as you roll through central Illinois.
