Reachable by public transport either on the Stockton ferry and a bus or by bus only from near the Newcastle interchange. Jets roaring overhead set the atmosphere for the visit. Received a very friendly welcome. Planes could be inspected at close range plus many cases...More
Great to see RAAF fighter jets in action, awesome sound & power also got to sit in former RAAF cockpits, entry fee is reasonable, cafe is reasonably priced too. I am not a Jet lover, however it was awesome to see how we have come...More
Excellent displays and some unusual aircraft. The outdoor displays are well kept. The location allows watching of aircraft activity at the airbase as well.
Took my two young grandsons 4 & 5 to fighter world for an learning experience on the RAAF and its history in Newcastle. Whilst the boys were probably a bit young to fully appreciate the whole museum they certainly enjoyed the displays and eventually got...More
Hi Pop, thanks for visiting and bringing your grandsons. Fighter World has something to offer for everyone and even though they may not have understood the history I'm sure the aeroplanes will inspire them on to greater things. We love to sit on the Observation...More
Fighterworld has an amazing collection of military aircraft from both Australian and overseas air forces. My favorites include the Bf-109f, the F111 and the MIG 21. Nicely placed for photography and very well maintained. Well worth the visit for any aviation or history buff.
Hi Tony, thanks for visiting. 3 favourites from very different eras. Our volunteers do a magnificent job of maintaining our displays and we're very pleased you appreciate their efforts.
Really enjoyed the morning. Lots of interesting displays and plenty of information about the history of the subject. Spent about 3 hours there, watched some jets doing take off / landing practice, had lunch in the cafe, a great way to spend a few hours.
Hi Adrian, thanks for visiting. We're very pleased you enjoyed your experience and took the time to learn a little about Australia's military aviation heritage. Of course the icing on the cake is being able to watch our F/A-18s and Hawks from the observation deck.
We went Fighter World with my two young boys, we were so excited to see so many aircrafts there. We can also seat on some of them and touch them. There are also Warcraft flying outside. My husband enjoyed the display so much, I am...More

Hi Shelly, we're so glad the kids had a great time and what an awesome place for a birthday party!
Really enjoyed the planes. Staff great. Added benefit of a training day at the RAAF base. Very interesting.
Hi Viv, thanks for visiting. We think the action on the airfield really makes the day too. Its great to experience the noise and power of these amazing machines and see just how much technology has developed over the last 100 years.
Here you can have the best day out especially when the fine men and women are flying the fighter jets, Fighter World has so many planes inside to see on the floor and hanging from the ceiling and you can even get a meal or...More
Hi Brett, thanks for visiting. There are 17 aircraft plus weapons, radars, ejection seats and many other items on display. Plenty of things to keep everyone entertained and when you need a break the cafe is just around the corner. You can stay cosy inside...More
