Love walking around identifying the different parts of different aircraft. A real gem of a place. Plenty of rare aircraft. A real museum. Not sterile like other museums I've been to. Bits and pieces everywhere. Loved it. Can't say enough. Must see if you're an aircraft nut. More

Bit hard to find without a gps but you can watch the landing planes to get close. Set in the middle of nothing. Some very interesting exhibits you won't see anywhere else. Allow at least an hour or two. More

I wish I could rate this museum higher but sadly it left us feeling underwhelmed and grateful we had not been charged any more. I suppose it is a vicious circle for the operators between charging too much for the current exhibition and nobody coming, yet charging a nominal amount and not having enough income to develop the collection and...

We actually have been here a few times over the years as we live wuite local to this. We are always pleasantly surprised at the diversity of the planes and the fact that it is very laid back. You can up close and personal with most of the aircraft and even climb aboard others on the site. Areally intersting few... More

Unlike other air museum's I have been to, here you are permitted to get up close, or even... More
