              The Air Force Museum of New Zealand holds the national
              collection of the Royal New Zealand Air Force. The Museum’s
              role is to preserve and present the history of New Zealand’s
              military aviation through its collection.

              The collection is very diverse and includes objects covering
              the early days of New Zealand military aviation both prior
              to World War I and during this major conflict, the interwar
              years which saw the formation of the RNZAF in 1937, New
              Zealanders who fought in the RAF and in other Allied air
              forces during World War II, the RNZAF’s campaign in the
              Pacific, and the post-war period to the present day. The
              collection also includes objects from former enemy forces.
              The collection is owned by the RNZAF Museum Trust Board.
