October 2024A fantastic day out seeing planes and other equipment from World War I up to today. So many interesting hangers to visit to see not only the well-preserved but those in the course of restoration. Concorde is a must see and absolutely fascinating especially as its one of the increasing number of planes which you can go on board. Just go, it's wonderful!

November 2024A great day out for all the family. The hangers are rammed with history and lots of help to hand on explaining the exhibits. Allow for a full day, long hours in summer to get your full value and to get around the hangers. Nice cafes and friendly staff. We had an Arts Pass so only £13 per person otherwise it would have been £26.

October 2024I would thoroughly recommend loads to see and do. We really enjoyed our visit and loved seeing all the planes. It would be nice to visit during one of the airshows, and it's on my to-do list! My only complaint was that there were a lot of schoolchildren visiting, which I think was a great learning opportunity for them. However, I came across one group in the American section running around playing tag, and the ones that were looking at things, case and point. What is this giant concrete foot? Why did it get graffiti on it? I didn't bother to look at the plaque, and there was no teacher on site! It was a shame, as it was a section of the Berlin Wall that he was referring to! Anyway, overall, it's a great place worth a visit! 4.9 stars

December 2024The best airplane museum I've ever been to. Incredibly large, with predominantly indoor viewings. Has really unique aircraft like the Concorde, Vulcan, SR71, B52, A10 as well as many many more. The museum stretches about a 10minute walk from the furthest hangars. The workers are all incredibly helpful and there are shuttle buses for when it rains. There is also a restaurant on site. Would highly reccomend.
