he Aerospace Museum of California is an aviation museum located in North Highlands, California on the grounds of the former McClellan Air Force Base. It features displays of authentic military and civilian aircraft as well as space vehicle replicas. It preserves the history and mission of this former base as well as those of neighboring bases like Beale (active) and Mather (closed) Air Force Bases. McClellan Air Force Base closed in 2001 and became McClellan Airfield, a civil aviation airport. he museum has over 40 aircraft in its collection from the fully restored, one-of-a-kind 1932 Curtiss Wright B-14B Speedwing to one of the last Grumman F-14D Tomcat retired from U.S. Navy service in 2006. In addition to aircraft, the collection includes many other historic artifacts relating to Sacramento's aerospace heritage. It also houses an extensive collection of historic aircraft engines. These include examples ranging from a World War I-era Gnome-Rhone rotary piston engine to the Pratt & Whitney nine-stage, axial-flow, bypass J-58 turbojet that propelled the SR-71 Blackbird supersonic spyplane. The museum features an art gallery containing more than 60 original works, many on loan from the Air Force Art Collection. The museum's restoration team is nearing completion of a Fairchild PT-19B World War II training aircraft. With new exhibits opening regularly, the Aerospace Museum is a wonderful place to explore the history of aviation

"We were not pleased with this property. We arrived after dark. There were no lights that illuminated the address on the house. We had to exit our car to walk to the two adjacent houses to find the house we rented. Once in the driveway the flood lights come on.The rental unit is in the back of the house. There was no lighting on the pathway to the back of the house. The dark pathway was covered by bushes/trees making it impossible to see what may be lurking ahead or what or who would greet you in...

Courtyard by Marriott Sacramento Cal Expo

10/10 Excellent

"The staff members that I came in contact with were super friendly, it was clean, easy and safe parking (based on my experience & I did not have any issues), generally quiet, easy check in and check out, convenient location with many food places near by. Cal exp is super close by. I was traveling with a 1 year old and I requested a pack and play. It was already set up upon arrival. Planning on staying again soon."
