What an amazing museum!! Fantastic volunteers! The simulators are great. And the ability to sit in the Puma, Harrier and Lynx! Nice little shop with very reasonable toys for kids. Lovely cafe with a nice range and not stupidly priced like many places.

Lovely little museum with a very nice collection of aviation related pieces. Everything from complete planes to a slide rule and everything in between. I particularly liked the wind tunnel models. Free entry and the option to donate £6 if you want to.

Great museum lots to see. It remains open even when the airshow is on. Just ask the guy at the junction to move the cones then park behind the main building, first left after the junction.
