| Lou Munoz Lancaster, California |  Great collection of classics. There is a beautiful Globe Swift there. A BT-15, Navion, FW-190 replica and other great classics. The model collection is worth the trip. 02/17/2013 @ 14:52 [ref: 55423] |

| April McKay-Dudsic , California |  Foxfield museum GPS address: 4549 William Barnes Avenue (off Avenue G), Lancaster, CA. It is filled with amazing planes and the guy gives a 30-60 minute tour of the place. He is very hands on knowledgeable and interesting. There is a sign in book and donation box after the tour. I would have given it 5 stars except for the dust, cobwebs, and some clutter. It is only open in sunlight hours so you can see obviously. The guy lives on site, so it is nearly always open in the daytime. 11/15/2010 @ 16:53 [ref: 11797] |
| Mark Goertzen , Nebraska | Being the flight engineer on the Argosy that is at your field (N1430Z)for the last 10 of it's years, I would love to come out sometime and see how the old girl is fairing. To bad the you are having problems finding props. The Dowty's might be hard to come by. If you give me an email address I can send you some pictures of old "Horatious" it his glory years.

| michael j la, California | I might go out there with greg some time. Were going to califoprnia city, and I want some interesting and nice places to stop off during the trip, since I will be going out there often, for the desert hideout. um, so I look forward to viting this location and reporting on it. I have been near there and just passed by , and all I can say is that it is a LOT of desert with not much of anything around. Fill your car with gasoline to the top, and bring lots of bottled water if you wish to survive out there. 10/07/2008 @ 12:07 [ref: 8450] |
| Stefan Alta Loma,CA // L67, California | We stopped at Fox on 07/26 mainly because I knew there was a C-119 parked out front and I am doing a bit of research on that AC. Jim the tour guide definitely knows his stuff, is very friendly and always open for questions. The outdoor display aircraft unfortunately are suffering in the desert heat and sandstorms and the small staff sure can't combat that. All in all the museum and airport are definitely worth a stop. 07/30/2008 @ 20:07 [ref: 8294] |
| Nate Wilburn Great Falls, Montana |  I worked on B-1B's in Palmdale in 1986-87 and hung around Fox Field on weekends when not at Chino Airport or Mojave Airport. There were a few neat old planes sitting around Fox Field that seemed to be rotting into the ground. A B-25, an A-20 Havoc, a TF-102, and a KC-97 come to mind. I recall another airplane nut-A&P mech and myself contacting the 'museum' in charge folks to offer up some volunteer time to help out with the planes to get them back into some sort of shape and getting a cold shoulder. Haven't been to Lancaster since 1991. I hope the Mitchell and Havoc atleast got some kind of restoration and TLC. Ref. Air Classics, Oct. 1986 issue. 07/17/2008 @ 05:12 [ref: 8247] |
| Stephen Lancaster, California | Was out at Apollo Park (right next door) and decided to stop in for a look around. The tour guide, Jim, is a former aircraft engine technician and is very knowledgeable about everything on display. Since few people visit this site, you get a very personal tour of everything with plenty of time to ask questions. I can definitely see the potential in this site to be something great, considering it's proximity to the small Fox Airport (they share tarmac). Take the planes in their possession, fabricate a few pieces of sheet metal, and throw on some fresh paint and a heavy dusting and this would be a great stop-over for an hour or two. 12/09/2007 @ 21:31 [ref: 6569] |
