Many moons ago (mid 90's)I went to the Valiant Air Command Museum at Titusville, can't remember much about it apart from chatting to a USAF B-17 Gunner who was stationed near Norwich.

THE Best Museum in Florida is at Pensacola.......but it's 450 miles West of Orlando!

This museum is well worth a look if in the area

It depends upon what you want to see, Titusville is very good as is the Museum at Tamiami, Polk City is closed which is a shame, take at look at its website to check when it opens. There is a facility for the Collins Foundation at New Smynra Beach, who are very friendly and then there is Lakeland. Don't forget Kissamee, for the museum and the P 51s again very friendly, did these in 2013

Hope this helps
