      Visited as a family outing from toddlers to Grandparents. We all enjoyed the time spent (c 2 hrs) browsing the exhibits, our toddler loved climbing on board the planes/cockpit.Very family friendly, lots of young children whilst we where there too.My father is interested in aviation and this has been a must see visit for a while and he thoroughly enjoyed the exhibits and personal accounts.This is a small museum focused on the exhibits, good shop but limited cafe facilities (recommend bring a picnic).

      Well, it is very small museum, with only 2 or three Mosquitos plus a few other aeroplanes, which unfortunately some of them were locked during my visit. I managed to see all exponents, take pictures of them and talk to staff in well less than 1 1/2 hour. Staff is very friendly, the whole place is tidy and pleasant, also there is a coffee machine, sitting area and a small shop where they sell aviation books and models. One huge benefit of visiting these small museums is that you can ''feel and touch'' the stuff as for example I was allowed to hold some rusty old shrapnel from WW2 :-) I mean you cannot do things like this in Duxford. Whole experience was great and I give it 4 stars.

      Visited with our 6 year old Grandson who was very interested in all the planes, especially the one where the top rolls back. Staff were very helpful and knowledgable. There are ab tremendous amount of planes and memorabilia on show and my husband said if he had been on his own he could have spent many hours there.

      Wonderful little museum for any aviation fan , very hands on with many aircraft open to view inside . The oldie worldie feel to the place only serves to accentuate the great history of the DeHavilland aircraft company . An absolute must visit if you are in the area and interested in aviation . No expensive restaurant , or tacky souvenirs , just a small tea shop with snacks , and a small but relevant gift shop . Totally run by volunteers who really do care about preserving the aircraft and the history .

      Always a little sad because the exhibits are in poor condition but still quite interesting for an hour or so. All seems a bit amateur and run on a shoestring. The trident exhibit is the centre piece but pity you can no longer go into the cockpit due to vandalism

      We enjoyed our visit here. Bags of history with lots to do and see for both adults and kiddies alike.

      Okay, at the start I work here as a volunteer one day a week, so I'm probably biased. But don't forget, as a volunteer, I can vote with my feet very quickly.For starters, I find the museum very open, friendly and interesting. To see the volunteers at work restoring classic British aircraft is just amazing. While the museum isn't quite hands-on, it's pretty close.The number of retired RAF aircrew who flew the Mosquito in combat and share their experiences are on the one hand fascinating and the other very humbling. I asked one former navigator about bailing out, because the escape hatch looks decidedly small. 'We didn't like to think about that' was his reply. Another visitor, a Dane who had been a school boy when the RAF bombed the Gestapo headquarters in Copenhagen during World War 2, recalled looking up during morning break to see the Mustangs and Mosquitos roar overhead enroute to their target.Okay, it creaks around the edges a bit and the proposed museum that will get the collection under a roof can't come soon enough, but for a good day out near St Albans, this is the place if, like me, you're an aviation enthusiast.

      Lots of men and women were enjoying looking and being allowed to sit in some of the exhibits. No where to get a meal there.

      Went they today, as have pass it very often but never popped in. Interesting place many aircraft to climb inside and explore. Could do with a cafe, they do have a drinks machine and selection of sandwiches. Would go back, staff are very knowledgeable and interesting to talk too.

      A nice collection of aircraft, helpful and informative staff. Nice to be able to get 'up close and personal' with some real historical stuff.
