The Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum is best known as the home of the world's largest wooden flying boat, the "Spruce Goose," the SR-71 "Blackbird," the Titan II SLV Missile and Oregon's largest IMAX 3D theater. In addition, there are more than 200 historic aircraft, spacecraft and exhibits on display, along with artwork and traveling exhibits.
In June 2011, the museum also opened the Wings & Waves Waterpark, an educational waterpark that includes four waterslides, a wave pool and a children's museum dedicated to teaching students about the power of water.
The hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily, except when it is closed for Thanksgiving, Christmas Day and Easter. The museum is located about three miles southeast of McMinnville on Highway 18, across from the McMinnville Airport. Regular visitor admission is required.
