- all of our hangars and display buildings are on one level so do not
present an entry problem
- we have some wheelchairs available to borrow if you do not
want to bring your own
- car parking spaces are indicated and disabled bays are close
to the Shop and hangars
- the three main hangars, including the NAAFI, are under cover
and interlink. The Shop is next door and several display rooms featuring
local aviation can be reached this way
- the NAAFI has only light refreshments for sale, such as
cakes, scones, crisps, hot/cold drinks but the
Buck Inn near our
front gate can provide hot meals - check opening days/times (01986
892382). Around a mile either side of the museum along the B1062 there
are other venues that also provide hot meals
- toilets (one disabled)
are next to the first hangar and NAAFI.
- the buildings for RAF Bomber Command, RAF Coastal Command &
Air-Sea Rescue, Royal Observer Corps, and 446th Bomb Group USAAF, are
within a short walk
- the Adair Walk, a raised boardwalk to the river, is to the
rear of the site and stretches some 350 yards (320m)
- dogs are permitted on our site and in all buildings except
the Shop (and rooms beyond) but must be on a lead at ALL times, and any
fouling MUST be removed
- we do not charge admission but there are donation boxes
conveniently positioned in all buildings and your support will be
greatly appreciated. An attraction of our size would likely charge in
the region of £4-£6 per person
- we have a large collection so expect to spend a couple of
hours at least looking around, and you may need to make a return trip to
see it all. Our collection is growing daily so you will find something
new on every occasion - there are some "hands-on" activities in the
hangars for children, and a small sit-in fun aircraft and boat outdoors.
When members are present in the Link
Trainer Room it might be possible to have a "flight" in a WWII
simulator for a donation
- there are several "B&B" venues near to the museum - see our "where
to stay" section
