Review:

This is a great destination for any family which likes planes. An acrobatic plane flies at certain times during the week. Make sure you coincide your visit to match one of these times. You can get fairly close to the plane and there is a question and answer session with the pilot.

There is also a Restoration Hangar where a De Havilland DH-98, made entirely of wood, is being restored. The display of various types of planes ranging from old to modern in the main museum is excellent. You can see air missiles, a mirage jet, helicopter, boat plane in addition to the standard planes. The staff are friendly, enthusiastic and informative. Entry is by donation and represents fantastic value.

Make sure you take identification with you so that you can get into the RAAF base.
