A few things were in disrepair - I got the impression that maybe there isn't a lot of funding to keep the place up, although it was still a fascinating place. It has a nicely stocked gift shop and a friendly staff running the cafeteria (when I asked if anyone parlezed anglais, they helpfully ran to the back and produced a young lady with a wonderful command of the language). If you are an aviation enthusiast with a few hours to kill in Paris, take the metro and the bus out there (or, maybe just grab an Uber and save yourself some trouble). There are interesting things to be seen here.

The museum is old and needs definitely some fresh restoration but all in all for aviation fan worth seeing .

The kids loved it. We only bought the plane pack. It was great

"Sliced" planes, various simulators, and an overall great muesum with a lot of space/aircraft

Don't expect the Smithsonian air and space museum. There are wonders of aviation here, but they aren't presented like in the U.S. It is decidedly more French. You won't see a lot about Lindbergh but you will see the discarded undercarriage of the Oiseau Blanc, the plane that was lost in an attempt to fly from Paris to New York a week before Lindbergh's flight. I thought I knew a bit about aviation history, but I'd never heard of the French experiments with high speed flight in the 1950s that reminded me of the U.S. "X-plane" flights - these are all lovingly and thoroughly presented.

Museum was ok, I would not recommend the restaurant inside if you are tourist, their waiters don't speak English.

If you are a tourist, you can avoid this to utilise your day for something else. Good collection of French aviation, but it's good for the kids.

Amazing place to spend an afternoon. Lots of aircrafts and spacecrafts as well as documentaries about air / space conquests. Great for kids as well.

A great place for Air and Space Enthusiasts! They have thousands of different aircraft, spacecraft, and rockets! Staff English is limited, but as long as you say "Bonjour" and are polite, they will act nicely towards you. Great museum, especially since 99% of the exhibits are free!

I have been there twice, a wonderful museum with interesting historical airplanes and their stories.

Nice space museum. Would to be renovated since activities and videos are getting old

Museum is very nice and most the exhibits, no complaints there. Staff was extremely rude and they don't speak English very well, some at all. There are no signs at the entrance in English.

A bit hard to get to - one must leave the touristy part of the city, and go out into a grittier environment. We rode the metro out to the bus stop, and a helpful old French lady finally broke through the language barrier and told us the bus didn't stop there anymore. After consulting the internet, other plans were made, another bus located, and we arrived at Le Bourget, fabled airport of Lindbergh's arrival.

The highlight was the Concorde, or to be precise, Concordes. Two of them, one in Air France and one in British Airways livery. You can walk right into both of them, although areas like the cockpit are restricted. Also there is an Air France Boeing 747 that you can explore.
