This was my 2nd visit, and it looked like there were a few new additions outside. Had a very warm welcome as this was a meeting point for a classic car drive out. Some very interesting aircraft and a good walk through of the bristish jet engine history. If you get the chance to climb into the Vulcan cockpit pit its well worth it.
Keep up the good work.
Great! Small but beautifully put together aviation museum, staffed by volunteers who clearly love what they do. Free entry but it really deserves a generous donation.
Any aviation buff keen on ww2 and post war jets will be in their element here. Highly recommended.
Open weekends only.
It is a great museum highlighting the important role that Gloucestershire played in Britain's aviation history! With an added bonus that you can go into some of the cockpits of the aircraft! I can't believe that it is FREE to enter, run entirely on donations, and by very knowledgable volunteers.
This is a very important collection and a great place to take children if they are interested in aircraft.
There is one of Whittle's first jet engines and the first airworthy unit (as well as the aircraft).
Well worth an hour or two. Longer if this is your thing.
Amazing place. The amount of aircraft and history is great. The staff who are volunteers are very knowledgeable. 11/10
So I went to the Jet age museum based at Staverton airport today. I was pleasantly surprised at how amazing it was. Firstly it’s free entry but you can leave a donation and please please do because they really deserve it.
When I entered I was greeted by some really nice volunteers that help run the place who are knowledgable and are really easy to chat to. They also have all the right facilities for whoever is going. Toilets as you walk in plus a really nice cafe where you get some really nice and reasonably priced snacks and drinks.
We enjoyed going around the museum as they had many interesting exhibits to see plus you can even get a tour of two of the plane where you can learn about the aircraft’s and sit in the pilots seat.
This is a great place to bring the family as their is plenty for everyone to enjoy. They only open the weekends but I have had a great day out and will be back soon. Thank you for a great day.
A great museum with an interesting range of aircraft and exhibits. Staffed by very helpful and enthusiastic volunteers, making for very pleasant afternoon out! Easy to find, easy parking, free entry.
All of the volunteers are incredibly helpful and ensure that you have every opportunity to maximise your visit. There is a huge amount of information on display, alongside excellent interactive exhibits. It's quite something to sit in a Vulcan bomber - you can feel the history even without the excellent guidance provided by the hosts.
If you do go, please make a donation as their hard work needs your support and they've clearly worked hard to ensure that there's something to appeal to all ages.
Go, go, go!
