Renovated museum of American Airlines awaits aviation addicts

Visitors to the newly renovated American Airlines’ C.R. Smith Museum can sit at the controls of an MD-80 cockpit.

In a simulated operations center, they would be capable of making judgment calls about whether to send a virtual aircraft through bad weather.

 

The recently completed multimillion-dollar renovation of the museum along Texas 360 in far northeast Fort Worth (just south of Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport) is aimed at making the whole experience more hands-on.

 

Uli Das, museum executive director said that via this renovation, they wanted to refocus the experience to give visitors a greater insight into the operations of an airline and the people that run it every day.

 

She also added that they wanted to make it significantly more interactive and that before this renovation, the museum was really nice, but more static.

 

The museum is governed by its own nonprofit board of directors, and is named after Cyrus Rowlett Smith, who served as the airline’s chief executive from 1934-68 and 1973-74.

Airline and museum officials declined to disclose precisely how much the renovation cost. It was funded by gifts from American Airlines, aircraft manufacturer Boeing and model aircraft maker PacMin.

 

The renovation also will give visitors a chance to get an up-close look at the new $300 million American Airlines headquarters, which is being built adjacent to the museum and is scheduled to open next year.

 

The new campus, also known as the Robert L. Crandall Global Support Campus, will house roughly 12,000 of American’s roughly 25,000 North Texas employees, and will feature a town square, bike paths and other amenities.

 

Also among the new features is a baggage loading exhibit, where guests can try their hand at loading up an aircraft against the clock.

 

And, for old-school aviation fans, the C.R. Smith Museum which originally opened in 1993  will still have several features that have been there for years. Among them is a restored 1940s DC-3 that is still on display  with curtains and other amenities giving visitors a taste of what it was like to travel in the post-World War II era.

 

The museum typically draws 25,000 to 38,000 visitors per year, and also performs aviation education outreach at Fort Worth-area schools.

 

Regular museum hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday-Saturday.
