International Mosquito Memorial Re-Dedication

You can see the aircraft being restored and interesting exhibits.

I liked the Horsa Glider and ability to go into cockpits

Amazing seeing all the history and the workmanship that goes into the restoration of all the planes. It really is a hands on experience and the volunteers really make this place special. Definitely will return when the new hangar is finished.

Touching the last remaining part of a Sea Hornet was very special

It’s great to have largely unrestricted access throughout the museum and exhibits.

I think this was the big attraction for me. To be able to peer inside the prototype Mosquito was a real treat as was being able to get very close to the other 2 Mossies they have. As other people have said there are a number of aircraft outside and exposed to the elements and slowly deteriorating but the Museum know this and are fundraising for another hangar.

I loved being able to get really close to the exhibits.

A truly great collection and friendly, enthusiastic volunteers.

If you are interested in the history of aviation in the UK then this is an absolute must visit place. It follows the history of the Dr Havilland family’s passion for flying developing into manufacturing their own airplanes.

I especially liked the planes you could go into which showed how people used to travel by air!! There are lots of curators around who are only too pleased to give information on the history of the various exhibits. Well worth the entrance fee!
