Directions
Located on the former Second World War airfield, the centre includes an Avro Lancaster ‘Just Jane’, which performs taxi rides regularly in the summer months.
The aviation heritage centre is also home to the country’s (and Europe's), only running Mosquito aircraft and a B25 Mitchell. The restored original Second World War watch towers form part of the museum which holds thousands of exhibits and photographs focusing on Bomber Command, including: a Barnes Wallis ‘Bouncing Bomb’, a home front exhibition, Blenheim, Hampden and Proctor aircraft restauration projects, and the Royal Air Force Escaping Society museum. At the entrance to the centre, a memorial stone commemorates No. 57 and 630 Squadrons.
Special events are scheduled throughout the summer and are further detailed on the website.
