Muzeum Glenna H. Curtissa
Glenn Curtiss rozpoczął swoją karierę jako konstruktor rowerów, a następnie motocykli. W 1907 roku został „najszybszym człowiekiem na ziemi”, osiągając prędkość 136,4 mil na godzinę na swoim motocyklu z silnikiem V8. Dokładna reprodukcja tego motocykla jest jednym z kilku wystawianych motocykli Curtiss. 4 lipca 1908 roku Curtiss zyskał rozgłos innego rodzaju, kiedy przeleciał swoją maszyną latającą, nazwaną „June Bug”, na odległość ponad 5000 stóp, aby wygrać nagrodę Scientific American Trophy. Był to pierwszy wcześniej ogłoszony publiczny lot w Ameryce – wyczyn, który zapewnił mu licencję pilota nr 1. Pełnowymiarowa reprodukcja „June Bug” jest jednym z kilku historycznych samolotów na wystawie. Oprócz motocykli i samolotów odwiedzający zobaczą również zabytkowe narzędzia, zabawki, łodzie i wiele innych. Jest tu coś dla każdego!

Glenn H. Curtiss Museum
Glenn Curtiss began his career as a builder of bicycles and then, motorcycles. In 1907 he became the "fastest man on earth" when he attained a speed of 136.4 MPH on his V8 powered motorcycle. An exact reproduction of this bike is one of several Curtiss motorcycles that are on display. On July 4th, 1908, Curtiss gained notoriety of a different kind when he flew his flying machine, named the "June Bug", a distance of over 5000 feet to win the Scientific American Trophy. This was the first pre-announced, public flight in America - a feat that earned him pilot's license # 1. A full-sized reproduction of the "June Bug" is one of several historic aircraft on display. In addition to motorcycles and aircraft, visitors will also see antique tools, toys, boats, and much more. There's something here for everyone!

Not to be missed. This muesem has something for everyone. Tour book says 1 hour, but I would give it 3 hours. Great muesem for history 1900-1960's. Displays are very well done. Many you can get right up to. The muesem is much larger than it looks when you drive up. It also includes 2 workshops where current restorations are being performed. All on one level. Very handicap accessible. Kids corner and very reasonable. I think we paid $14 each. In the future, I would book a private tour of the muesem or group tour. Don't miss this gem.

Our first experience, despite being Museum Members for the past 4 years, we found it to be very educational. About 5 hours were spend inside among all of the great history, motor bikes, planes, automobiles, Curtiss Estate items and other important local history. After speaking with several locals it was refreshing to know that many a school field trip takes place to this museum where important stuff can be learned at a young age. It just takes a spark to set a fire inside some young boy or girl's soul. Then you will have the next world changer. Perhaps the biggest takeaway was the relatively downplayed Curtiss- Wright Brothers Feud which was more fierce in actual reality then realized. Also recognition was given to many others beside Curtiss who helped innovate & build motor bikes and airplanes. All were legendary transportation pioneers of that day that continuously pushed forward. Bring a Lunch and spend some quality time here . . .

Very neat museum. We really enjoyed all the planes and motorcycles. It wasn’t crowded and the people were very nice!
