A great museum; well laid out and very informative.
Good range of aircraft on display and lots of other interesting things to see. Free entry but make sure you leave a donation

5.0/5
Cannot rate this museum highly enough.
For one thing it was free (although you can pay for additional tours), the staff are really friendly and informative, the displays are excellent and you can photograph them all. There is also a cafeteria on site (did not try it though). A great way to spend a couple of hours. A brilliant collection of planes.

Lovely restored old planes, very interesting tour behind the scenery possible, with competent explanations of the work of rebuilding an aircraft.
