Fab place..we love the return ticket we utilised today. Discovered different areas in more detail and as there was a queue to go inside the concord plane we skipped that as already explored last time. Excellent displays and videos etc Cafe also very decent. Good food and relatively good value. Love it and will be back again!

It's really informative about the role the Bristol area has had in the development of aviation. As for the concorde, it's amazing to get so up close to one and, of course, the chance to step foot inside, and talking with Doug from the centre was very interesting, as he knows so much about it, a real pleasure. The staff here were all very friendly, helpful and enthusiastic. Plentiful free parking and tasty food at the cafe.

Lovely place to go to learn about aviation history. I especially enjoyed the Concord exhibition as we were able to walk through the plane and see what it's like inside. Very interesting.

This place has been on my 'bucket list' for quite some time. I traveled from New Zealand to visit - and ventured to Bristol for a day trip - from London. Well worth it, an extremely well kept and preserved example, the hangar is beautiful - offering many vantage points for amazing photos. Great to be able to get up close to the nose - at nose level, and photograph. The people working here are passionate, share a love of aviation and Concorde. Highlight of the day was meeting and talking to the team of people - who are dedicated to Aerospace Bristol, who ensure an amazing experience for the visitors.
