- 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. The Dove around a mile away on
the B1062 and A143 junction can provide hot meals - check opening days/times.
- 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 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
