Why I recommend this place to visitors

This is a fabulous day out. I’m not a big fan of aeroplanes/war stuff, but we thought we’d give it a go, and was glad I went. Would like to go again. Full day out, loads to see, would like to visit when there’s an air show on. And can at least say I’ve been on Concorde!

Former Battle of Britain fighter airfield

Now home to one of the world’s largest collections of preserved military and civil aircraft.

These include the B-17 Flying Fortress ‘Sally B’, The Fighter Collection, Ray Hannah’s The Old Flying Machine Company, and the Aircraft Restoration Company/British Aerial Museum with restored and operates the well known Bristol Blenheim.

Original World War I hangars stand in contrast to the new American Air Museum and it’s glass front wall.

Elsewhere on site can be found the Land Warfare Exhibition for military vehicle enthusiasts, and a restored Battle of Britain Operations Room.

Flying displays are held during the summer season and prove extremely popular
