Admission Charges: Adults £10, Children £5 (5-17), under 5s FREE. Family Rate £20

Membership available via website

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
