If you’re looking for a free family day out, then the Royal Air Force Museum could be just what you’re after. The only museum in Britain which is dedicated entirely to the aviation industry, with over 70 planes at the museum in Cosford and over 100 at the museum in London, there is loads to see and do. Alongside every plane, there are related exhibitions and history with interactive experiences which will make the day out educational and, most importantly, fun! School children of all ages are also very welcome to the museums, which can provide bespoke activity days that compliment current studies and projects.
The museums feature exhibitions from the earliest bi-planes to the most modern jets, with everything in between, so whatever period of history is of interest, it will be covered. Along with the aircraft, there is an extensive collection of uniforms, medals, films and artwork, as well as focus on the brave men and women who made it all possible and the jobs they did which helped to shape the world we live in today.
The RAF Museum is supported by a world class quality shop and merchandise with all profits going towards the upkeep and new exhibitions. The products sold in the gift shop are of the highest quality and many are exclusive to the RAF shop. Available online, you won’t have to visit the museums to purchase their products and do your bit to help keep these fantastic museums fun, informative and free.
