Gimli Glider Museum

First time visiting the exhibit, it was a great experience today, they have a lot of pieces of the actual aircraft. Clearly a lot of work has gone into the place. The staff and volunteers are diligent and try to make it a good all-around experience for visitors.

Stopped on Sunday when they opened and had a wonderful conversation with one of the guides. Well done exhibit and highly educational. Worth a stop!

I had no idea there was so much to the story. Plus the simulator was awesome!!!

Fantastic museum!!! The volunteers were incredibly knowledgeable and friendly too.

What a fantastic experience. Four of us attended, all were impressed by both the items on display as well as the knowledgable and dedicated volunteers who have assembled the items. An absolute MUST see.

OMG what a nice place to go. The 2 ladies that run this place are very knowledgeable. They put everything into this museum to show tourists and town people on what happened about the landing of this plane. The ladys go far way and above to get all the information plus artifacts from that day. They even have a simulator that you can fly the plane, it's pritty cool.Stop in and see what it's all about.

What a lovely experience! The two volunteers working today were very knowledgeable and passionate about this historic event. It is a small museum but well laid out and covers a ton of details surrounding the incident. Various people that were involved in the actual Gimli Glider flight have been instrumental in supporting this museum and its archive. Barb, the museum president, spent a lot of time with me going through letters and articles, explaining how various items were acquired for the collection, and describing some of the future goals for the displays. I recommend a visit here.

A fantastic little museum right in the heart of town. This is a must visit if you’re an aviation enthusiast and you find yourself in Gimli.

Great exhibit, I especially liked the 20 minute documentary plus the simulator.experience.
