SanDiego AeroSpace Museum Gillespie Field Annex

This place is an absolute gem in Santee. Ever wonder what the rocket is you see near 67/52? That’s a red stone rocket on display. Great place for the kids to run free. Cool cockpits for them to play and have a blast. Anyone under 12 is free, $5 for anyone else. We go here all the time.

Totally worth your time. They have tons of stuff for anyone interested in aircraft to enjoy. The aircraft are amazing to see up close and they have info cards for most of the display pieces. Totally recommend if you are at all interested in aircraft.

Such a fun place to go with the kids. They had an absolute blast there. There's a cockpit of an old Hawaiian Northwest airlines you can sit in. So many different Jets. The only issue is some deterioration on the paint. I'm sure it costs a fortune to maintain. We didn't have to pay any entrance fee, so that's a plus. We didn't notice a donation box either. Either way, definitely worth the stop.

This is a great place to take your kids if they're interested in Aerospace stuff and airplanes. It is completely free, but you can leave a donation. The selection of aircraft is small, but they are of quality. They have lots of cockpits that one can sit in, and little airplane pedal vehicles that the kids can ride around in. All in all, it's a nice place to spend a couple of hours.
