What to See & Do

Korean War Jets Exhibit

January 01, 2013 to December 31, 2013

The unique diorama display of Kimpo Air Force Base in South Korea highlights the defection of Lt. No Kum Sok (Kenneth Rowe), a 21-year old, elite North Korean Air Force pilot, as well as the historic events that transpired following the defection. Kenneth Rowe himself assisted in the design and accuracy of the exhibit and has presented several lectures here telling the story in his own words. It features two of the primary fighter jets that became adversaries during the Korean War era - the F-86 Sabre and the MiG-15.
