My dad and I went in with rather little in the way of expectations but were amazed by the size and quality if the collections here. Far more aircraft than you would think could fit in the hangars including several you can walk inside and some you can even sit in the cockpit. Lots of informative displays, artwork from very talented local artists as well as plenty of staff around more than happy to delve into the history of a particular article. The front desk staff were also fabulous, gave us a very helpful guide to the museum along with some recommendations on what to look out for. Even if you're not an aviation history buff I would still recommend a visit you can spend a morning quite pleasantly just walking around.

AN INCREDIBLE MUSEUM! One of the cheapest places I've been to, relative to what you get. So much interactive experience and things to do. Climbing inside the planes is such an amazing experience and a unique one too. Nicest people work here too. Couldn't recommend more highly

We had so much fun here. My daughter loved it so much and can't wait to go back. There is so much for the kids to play with and learn about aviation and history. I had fun too, lots to read as you go around. Staff are helpful and knowledgeable.
