The only Allied Forces memorial in Europe, Yorkshire Air Museum is supported by over 4,000 registered friends of the museum from around the world. The museum aims to educate and preserve the history of flight. Visit the collection of over 50 aircraft from around the world, including machines from as far back as 1853 and as modern as the GR4 Tornado. The museum's site covers over 2.8 hectares (7 acres) of managed landscape, part of a sustainability program called the "Nature of Flight." This large area is used on "Thunder Days" to demonstrate maneuvers with still-operating aircraft. You'll find a printable map of the museum's acreage on its website.

What a brilliant museum!! Took my two sons who had a fabulous day, you are welcomed with great resources and staff!! The food from the cafe is very good quality and the gift shop has something for all budgets. Tickets last all year and we will definitely be returning as we were so excited to see everything we couldn’t take in much of the educational information. Highly recommended and dogs are welcomed too!! A day out not to be missed!

Very interesting place with aircraft from both world wars and the Falklands war. Museum staff friendly and knowledgeable. Various displays in the mizzen huts. We spent a good 2hours looking round and could have spent a lot longer. All for £12 good value for money. Not to mention you can also take your dog.
