                                Behind the Scenes Tour

                                Designed with the aviation enthusiast in mind, but of interest to everyone, this ‘behind the scenes’ guided tour will provide the rare opportunity to see aircraft restoration projects in action. Current projects include the wooden Airspeed Oxford, the Curtis P-40 Kittyhawk fighter, Vickers Vildebeest Mk III and the Bomb Truck. This tour also explores No.3 Hangar, our large object storage area, where you’ll view a further 11 aircraft along with many other items of interest. Take this rare opportunity to walk inside the Bristol Freighter and through the Andover as you learn about these aircraft and others from their era.

                                Tours run three times daily at 11am, 1:30pm and 3pm and tickets are available at $10 per person at Reception and last 45 minutes to an hour.

                                To view images from our Restoration Hanger visit our Restoration Gallery.

                                 You can see our Restoration Projects in action on our Restoration Tour. Current projects include the Vickers Vildebeest, Airspeed Oxford, Curtiss Kittyhawk and the Huck's Starter.
                                 No.3 Hangar contains over 11 additional aircraft that can only be viewed on the Restoration Tour.
