If you’ve never been, I highly recommend it - amazing place.

Plus you get to sit in a Vulcan!

Yep, it arrived 2 weeks ago.

They’ve also opened another building for restoration - loads of early micro lights, as well as a Vampire.

Thanks for your recommendation,

I volunteer here and do the Vulcan tours and cockpit visits. We are all volunteers and a friendly bunch so come and have a chat with some of the most enthusiastic people you will find in a aviation museum, some with fascinating stories of their time on the aircraft we have on display.

No probs. To me it’s like a mini Duxford, but friendlier.
