I was in coventry visiting family and decided to go visit this museum with my dad. Boy! We are in for a treat. We arrived at opening time at 10am and where ready to go. You can see the Vulcan bomber from the car park . Went inside and had a look around the exibit which explains the jet engines... More

A little difficult to find, but worth loking for, plenty to see and do, ideal for children, allow plenty of time to view all areas

Took my 11 and 12 year old here, and we had a great afternoon, it was also the first time we went in the cockpit of a Vulcan bomber, something that you can do in very few places in the uk. The staff were very helpful and there is a nice little section dedicated to Sir Frank Whittle, with a... More

I was looking for a trip out that would be interesting for the family and came across this place on the Internet. We don't live far from Coventry but I'd never even heard of it! When we arrived there was plenty of parking and it was clean and inviting. My 7 yr old son was very excited in the gift... More

Sunday just gone I... More

The entrance fee is excellent value for money and the staff... More

What a great little museum - and it doesn't get any support from British aircraft companies! They even have to buy planes from abroad to show what great aircraft we used to build. And a real storehouse of models of just about everything mechanical - do go and support these people!

We called in hear to kill an hour and my daughter was not so keen, it was ok, loads of planes with great information. What made the day and the whole experience which will live with me forever was when we climbed into the Vulcan bomber and were given a tour from a man who had flown in this plane... More

Firstly let me tell you what this isn't - it isn't a large scale museum on the scale of Duxford, Hendon and Cosford - you would struggle to spend more than a couple of hours here - it isn't a brand spanking new facility - some of the buildings are relatively old What it is - is an absolutely brilliant...
