This museum was brilliant especially considering the price. When we looked at the price online I thought it must be a mistake. 2 was an unbelievable price! Enjoyed looking round all the planes. It's unbelievable see how old some of them are but how modern they look! Would definitely recommend this place. The staff were also very friendly and happy to chat about the displays.

A great low key museum with some interesting exhibits and it's possible to get very close up to the display aircraft. Sadly Covid restrictions prevented us going in some of the planes, so will certainly be back when that's possible. Plenty of car parking available and good sign posting off the A140

Covid compliances in place. Plenty of hand sanitizer. Really lovely man kindly showed us around and spoke of his experiences in engines. Not everything is open for visiting Will certainly go back

This is a great little museum, especially for aviation nuts. Lots of old aircraft outside to get up-close and personal with. I like that they aren't all roped off so you can't get close like some museums. The Vulcan and Nimrod are worth the entrance money alone and the Lightening is great to see too (as are all the other aircraft) They are full aircraft (flown in and parked up permanently), not just nose sections again like some other museums. There are plenty of inside displays to look at too, along with a small gift shop to buy models etc. There is a nice little, very reasonably priced cafe which DOES serve sandwiches (and very reasonably priced sandwiches too), along with the usual teas, coffees, cakes etc. The best thing about the place, and I can highly recommend this, is the guided tours of the Vulcan and the Nimrod (additional 2.50 per aircraft per person). You get to see the entire aircraft inside and out. The Vulcan cockpit is a must see. The volunteers doing the guided tours are great and as mentioned numerous times in these reviews, knowledgeable. Allow 2 to 3 hours just to see these two aircraft properly. It is a shame that the new A1270 (Northern Distribution Road) has sliced through the museum's display area. It was previously integral with Norwich Airport which enabled most of the aircraft on display to be flown in to be parked up permanently. Would have liked to visit before the new road went through it, as it would have been a lot more atmospheric then, and quieter as the busy NDR is very noisy and reduced the space available to display the aircraft, as well as making it impossible for new aircraft exhibits to be flown in. Definitely worth a visit.

It was amazing and marvellous experience to visit this museum. I was lucky that I had an opportunity to see the cockpits of Avro Vulcan and Nimrod. The guiders in these aircraft were excellent. The personnel of museum was professional. I enjoyed my stay there. I can recommend to visit this museum.

Great place to visit. Lots of aircraft and static exhibits. Sunny days are best. The tour of the Nimrod is worth the 2.50. Very friendly staff.
