It's a great museum, with a great view of the RAF base. It was a quiet place, with very few people there, with a large variety of planes. I would definitely recommend it if you are into planes and how they work as you can learn lots. Entry is free, but donations are gladly accepted.

Absolutely fantastic place to visit. Entry is free so no need to buy tickets but may be worth booking if going ad a large group or school. The hangers are amazing with so much to see. There is lots of interactive exhibits and even a couple of flight simulators. The history and information of the engineering behind these plans is wonderful and the staff are so helpful and engaging. They offer chances for you to sit in a cockpit and dress as a pilot too. The gift shop is lovely and very reasonably priced and the cafe offers delicious coffee and sandwiches but is slightly on the pricey side.

Amazing museum with free entry, just pay for parking. An absolute credit to the volunteers and staff. Great day out for older children and adults, lots of activities, for small costs. Get your free tickets on line and discounted car park ticket

Absolutely loved this ace and will definitely be returning, we have probably missed loads.It is like a giant jigsaw puzzle with so much military hardware it is difficult to describe it fairly.AND IT IS FREEThe only cost is car parking so four of us were admitted for just £6.50 in total (if you book online).Recommend 100%Best museum outside the big cities for sure.

Really enjoyed my visit here. Wasn’t sure what to expect other than the obvious planes. However the social history at each section was an added bonus. Very cleverly laid out within glass viewing panels. Explanations about many of the world’s conflicts (which as a child and teenager I didn’t fully grasp). The only area for improvement would be the food options at the cafe, I think that could be far better. The staff are lovely and friendly and made the visit pleasant.

If 10 stars would be possible, they will get it. Amazing experience, we enjoy a family day out on a cold December day. A lot of technology to send us back in time to be connected with the history. Kids enjoyed walking around and enjoyed getting in the plane simulator. There are lots of options to enjoy a snack , a coffee or why not your own food. The souvenir store is really nice too.The parking is big, and also having an outside playground for kids, of course useful for hot days :). It is an outside exhibition, but today was cold to walk around.A big thank you ❤️

Excellent place to visit, really interesting with very knowledgeable staff.The exhibitions were excellent and so interesting.Lots of places to sit if walking is a problem, everything is very accessible.Cafe was good, food was lovely, we had the pizzas and about the normal price range you would expect at a museum.Would highly recommend.

Absolutely brilliant even though there was only partial access to the Cold War hanger due to dangerous condensation on the floor. The guide who showed us as much as he could from the gantry was really knowledgeable .The rest of the museum wasn't affected by this and is full of planes (some that are extremely rare) and all sorts of memorabilia that gives a,real insight into all aspects of the RAF which you can view at your own pace.There are also multiple simulators available for roughly £5 a go.I bought our tickets on line as didn't want to be turned away and received a discount on parking chargesThe exhibition itself is completely free which I thought was amazing as that is really unusual now.We did however donate money on one of the donation points plus bought some stuff at the shop and a guide book so we did put some money into the coffers.
