We called in hear to kill an hour and my daughter was not so keen, it was ok, loads of planes with great information. What made the day and the whole experience which will live with me forever was when we climbed into the Vulcan bomber and were given a tour from a man who had flown in this plane... More

Firstly let me tell you what this isn't - it isn't a large scale museum on the scale of Duxford, Hendon and Cosford - you would struggle to spend more than a couple of hours here - it isn't a brand spanking new facility - some of the buildings are relatively old What it is - is an absolutely brilliant...

It's essentially a hangar and a field full of old restored jet engined aircraft (and a few propellor driven ones too). Helpful staff as well as the opportunity to go into a couple of cockpits.

Go and support the volunteers that run this place by just going there. It has some really interesting aircraft including the Vulcan which you can climb into and tons of interesting stuff to look at. Be prepared to spend lots of time there, the catering is pretty good too.

wonderful we spent the sunday afternoon in this wonderful place full of history very little charge to get in plenty of people to talk to about the planes, my grandson who is three loved climing up to get inside the helicoptor and running free and safe around the grounds would love to go back janette and Dainton

If you have an interest in aviation then this is a must place to visit although it is a difficult place to get to via public transport which is a crying shame.The aircraft are mainly jet however this is to be expected as it is the home of the Sir Frank Whittle Jet Heritage collection as the great man himself...
