    Loved this museum! My dad worked for TWA for 36 years. I have the fondest memories of dressing up to go to the downtown airport for the Christmas party, and Santa handing out presents. We always dressed up to fly also, and that's still in my head when I fly. I really miss TWA. 💔

    The TWA Museum was super cool! On display was every kind of equipment, great plane models, real planes, all kinds of memorabilia, wonderful gift shop, and a knowledgeable and earnest staff. So cool!
