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.

Living locally we encourage our visitors to go in and check out this restoration in progress, only a handful of the planes still exist and you are able to climb aboard and get the feel for what the heros of WW2 had to deal with.

Thank you for your positive review. It's a big project, but worth doing. Please come again and check out the progress. We also do an engine run about once a month, which may interest you. Contact us for details.

Popped into visit the hanger on a Thursday morning. Not many other visitors and plenty of free parking. Admission is $5.00 and there is a well stocked gift shop with souveniers and even some aircraft parts!!!!
The place is a hive of activity with a bunch of keen volunteers working on various parts of the aircraft. While i was there restoration was being carried out on a turret, an engine, the cockpit, work in the bomb bay, hydraulics as well as work on a Link trainer and an Airspeed Oxford. The volunteers are happy to chat and explain what they are doing.
Tours are offered for free and i would strongly suggest that any visitor take advantage of this and take a tour. Its extremely interesting and no matter how much you think that you know about Liberators i guarantee that you will learn more.
There is also a CAC Boomerang being worked on. Another rare piece of Aussie aviation history

When we arrived we were greeted by three friendly people. The admission is $5 each which goes towards the restoration of the plane. One chap took us around explaining everything and it was very interesting. After a little while I left the men to it. My husband then enjoyed a guided tired of engines and parts of planes that men seem to like. Nothing was too much trouble for these volunteers. The plane is very special being the last one left and it was very important in its hey day. Would recommend a visit. Check the opening times though because it is not open everyday.

If you're into WW2 history and aircraft, I highly recommend this as a day out. The fantastic part is you can touch and feel the aircraft and stick your head up into it to really appreciate what our forbears did to protect our future. They have engine start-up days as well so you can experience the roar of a 12 cyl radial engine. Tons of memorabilia for you to see as ell. Plus its a working museum so you can talk to the guys doing the restoration as well.

Visited the hangar many times and the volunteers are always very willing to talk and answer any questions. In a good spot to get to and to park. the history of the place is very interesting. Well worth a visit especially if you are an aircraft buff.

Great display, not just the aircraft but the plethora of other memorabilia in the place. Best value POI in the area.

Why should you visit this place?
Simple really.
Visit to watch a group of dedicated volunteers working to rebuild one of the most rare aircraft in the world, to allow it be a living memorial to the brave men of the RAAF and USAAF who flew in the B24 Liberator.
I was completely in awe of the folk at this museum; their dedication and passion is breathtaking.
Unfortunately I was not able to visit when an engine run was going on, but I'm guessing that would be a spectacle worth watching and hearing!
Being allowed to get into the B24 to see the work in progress was in itself worth the visit.

I went along with my partner only because he is interested in planes and restoring planes and old planes and new planes.. you get my drift. I was really surprised how interesting this place was with its museum type feel and lots of old stuff to look at. It is basically run by a group of volunteers who don't all come from aerial backgrounds, some are just interested and get taught how to do things or do what they can...they are there just for the love of it..the entrance fee helps with all the cost's they have so it is good to support these local type endevours....

For many years I have wanted to call on this Museum, finally I made it. Not far out of Werribee is a part of our aviation history being lovingly restored by a dedicated team of aircraft enthusiasts.
If you love aircraft this is one display you do not want to miss.
The B-24 restoration has been in progress for the last 20 years and the result of work done is a credit to the restoration group. The detail and authenticity of the restoration of this aircraft is something to be seen to be believed.
Take a turn off the freeway and visit this astounding museum. Enjoy a guided tour and see the displays of the Liberator, Airspeed Oxford, Aircraft Engines and other aircraft artefacts.
Open Tuesday, Thursday & Saturday with ample parking on site.
