Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Enjoyable Visit
Feb. 2023
An excellent museum covering different aircraft and equipment from the 1st World War, Korea, Vietnam to today. This museum provides a real eye opener to the size of the aircraft’s which amazed me. Plus the museum is free to look around, but saying that please leave them a donation to keep the museum going. A really enjoyable visit.

Loved this gem , I have a truly new understanding and respect for our army aviation crews. Great displays, great information, really enjoyed getting inside a Chinook helicopter and seeing a black hawk close up.

Exceptional display of Australian aviation history
Dec. 2022 • Friends
A very thorough and well presented history of Australian army aviation. Exceptionally well displayed aircraft and historic memorabilia. With a very pleasant drive to get there, some quaint eateries in town and the outstanding museum, this is a great short excursion if you’re staying in the area.

Not to Be Missed Display!
Sep. 2022 • Couples
What brilliant display of army aviation spanning the period from WW1 to Afghanistan. The exhibit contains many aircraft from all-throughout the period mentioned above., some interactive experiences and a wealth of personal stories from service personnel. it is educational for adults and kids alike. Ever been inside a Chinook heavy lift helicopter? Well here you can.

Annoyed
May 2022 • Solo
I checked the website for opening hours and days before trekking all the way out to the location. Arrived 2 p.m. on an open day but found the gate locked and no signs to indicate why it was closed or when it would be open. Very annoying.

SO cool
May 2021 • Couples
Zero expectations and it was a huge surprise. We needed to do something for about an hour or so, so that we do not arrive too early for check in time.
Remembered that there was some army plane museum on one of the travel shows, or was it on the news? Did a quick google search and the museum was on the way to Toowoomba.
So off we went and surprise!
So much to see and read and learn. So many aircrafts jam packed in this tiny hangar. There is a full size chinook where you can walk in and hit a button and you get to experience what it is like when it is in operation.
Well worth our visit.

This museum is worth a look if you’re passing through or are in the Oakey area. Great displays, heaps to look at and knowledgeable staff. You can have a look inside a chinook which was awesome!

Oct. 2020 • Friends
What an eye opener this place is! What a wealth of knowledge does Scott the Curator of the Museum have. How entertaining is he in his delivery of a conducted tour of the facility. Simply FANTASTIC.
Wish we had more time to inspect it in more detail. Thank you for an enjoyable morning.
