    This is an excellent aviation museum to visit - incredible artefacts, professional and easy-to-view displays as well as a wealth of well-researched historical information to read. Only one disappointment was the lack of any kind of nutritious food at the cafe - perhaps this is due to COVID limitations in sourcing good product, but it's probably best for visitors to know this beforehand; it certainly doesn't reflect the otherwise spectacular museum.

    The WWI EXHIBIT was great. If you’re a plane enthusiast they have 16 planes and stories of pilots as well. The WWII exhibit is a work in progress but one thing we noticed was they were highlighting women pilots in the war as well.
