" Interesting day out, plenty to keep the older kids busy. Indoor displays (including the amazing Concorde) are excellent, but the outdoor static aircraft (Vulcan and Comet especially) look tired and in need of cosmetic restoration.
Overall a worthy place to see. Recommended. "

" Great museum for kids and aviation enthusiasts. Exhibits are placed in original hangers and externally the museum looks like what it originally was, a disused airfield. There is a good mix of real aircraft that can be boarded, interactive educational resources , movies and informative displays. The Concorde exhibit is well presented and the aircraft has been very well preserved. The BAC 1-11, Comet and Vulcan have suffered the effects of weathering but it was interesting to walk the corridor of the comet and see the back to back seats. There is a cafe and standard museum gift shop with quite high prices. All in all, a great day out. "

" Fantastic museum! We had 3 generations in our group from 3 years old to 75 years old and we all enjoyed our visit.
A huge variety of exhibits with excellent information via touch screens gives you the opportunity to learn as much or as little as you like about each plane. There are plenty of short films on different screens that give just the right amount of information. And the interactive exhibits are fantastic, ee could have spent all day in this building alone!
The cafe is clean with a good choice of food (including gluten free) and the food prices are average for museums.
All the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable about the exhibits. They all seem to enjoy their work and this only makes for a better experience. "

" Great place, lots to see. Excellent selection of planes through the ages and the interactive section is good for the kids to show the dynamics of flight. If it's a nice day it's good to walk about the whole area , can easily spend a good few hours here exploring. "

" Great new hanger displays. Concorde is superb to see up close and inside. Interactive zone really good for all ages. "
