Really great afternoon out. Lots to see and read about. Large part dedicated about the Falklands war.. very well set up would recommend if you are looking for a few hours out. You can get a hot drink and cake as well...
It was my first visit here and I have to say I'm impressed, the concession prices are very fair. I've been to a few aircraft museums and I think this is the best one I've seen. While we walked round some of the volunteers started making general conversations that turned into a wealth of knowledge and true passion for their exhibits. Not only the aircraft were obviously lovingly restored but the interactive displays were really fun. They also ran displays from mostly original buildings, and there was a talk from one volunteer about the Falkland war that was very informative. I was pleased to see a selection of armoured vehicles including a chieftain tank I learned to drive one using the same model so it was a real blast from the past. I'd like to say I'd definitely visit again but it's a 3 1/2 hour drive so we'll see.
It's been a good while since I've visited the museum, but I'm glad to report that it's better than ever. I was welcomed on arrival by a lovely friendly lady, and all the staff I spoke to were polite, and most importantly of all, true enthusiasts. The aircraft on display are a wonderful mix of airplanes and helicopters. Also in previous visits, the museum had a small Amateur Radio Station, run by a wonderful chap called Richard. Sadly, I learnt today that Richard has passed. His love of CW was infectious, and radio in general. 73's Richard. " What Hath God Wrought ".
Great museum. Plenty to see. Spent 2 hrs here. It was open cockpit day so we were aloud to sit in various aircraft. Exhibits spread over a number of buildings. As well as the varied aircraft and vehicles on display the history of the local area and its residents are told told during the second World War.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
While a museum to aviation set up to tell a story of aviation, with a great selection of exhibitions, this museum lacks a clear purpose and narrative it is trying to tell. On my visit in January 2023, there were no cafe or catering facilities, and we were left to wonder through in an unclear and jumbled order of viewing exhibits that left us feeling disoriented and unsure if we had viewed everything. I am sure this is great for a family day out with children of a young to teenage range, but as someone with a wealth of knowledge on the subject of aviation and history, I felt rather disappointed. Tickets are set at £7 a head for adults, for a rather cramped museum area in the corner of a sprawling housing/ light industrial area development. I would not consider this worth the ticket cost, as a fan of aviation.
This place is an absolute bargain. Not only a treasure trove of aircraft but also engines and wartime history and memorabilia. Very interesting Falklands time line and local history of aircraft and wartime. Very friendly staff. Well worth a visit.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
So much to see for such a small price. Great little flight simulators and can sit in the cockpit of a lot of the planes. Can see the engineers working on the restoration. We underestimated how big it was so had to rush round the last bit but will definitely be going back.
The prices are fair enough £12 for an adult and 2 children. Interesting place, take your time and have a saunter around. Might be a bit boring for some children as they have lots of bits and pieces from aircraft. Plenty of free parking and easy access from the motorway.
Had stopped off in Doncaster for the night on our way to Great Yarmouth so had googled a few bits and bobs to see anything decent to do.. this place is awesome and we easily spent a few hours walking round with a pit stop for an ice cream from the wee shop aswell.. travelling back this way again in September and will be putting this on the list of places to visit...
Great museum! Loads to see and it’s not all 20ft behind a rope like some other museums. There’s cockpits open for visitors to sit in and pretend to fly and live out all your childhood dreams! The museum has a dedicated team of volunteers that have restored a number of the aircraft and cockpits on display to the highest standards and you’ll often see the volunteers working away on the multiple projects that the museum has ongoing like English Electric Lightning XP706, Vulcan XL388 and a collection of Canberra cockpits.
