International Mosquito Memorial Re-Dedication

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.

As a Hertfordshire lad by birth, I should have known about this place years ago. But glad I’ve found it now. Many have described it as a ‘Gem’ and it really is. It’s so important that the memory and history of the great De Havilland organisation is remembered and passed on to future generations.

You can see the aircraft being restored and interesting exhibits.

My son enjoyed himself particularly sitting in the planes and the guide in Hangar E was very informative and helpful.

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

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!

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

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

A truly great collection and friendly, enthusiastic volunteers.

We had a great visit and the kids really loved getting in the planes!
