Bournemouth Aviation Museum is a self-funding Charitable Trust based near Bournemouth Airport where they host a wide variety of aircraft modern and old. The Museum is for all age groups right from the very youngest children through to the men and women who may have flown or worked on some of these aircraft during their careers. They truly hope that you will enjoy your time at their Museum as well as inspiring young boys and girls to become the pilots, air traffic controllers, or engineers of the future.
The Museum opened in May 1998 as the Jet Heritage Museum based in the Heritage Hangar at Bournemouth Airport. Visitors could enjoy watching work taking place on Jet Heritage’s excellent fighter collection which had been built up since 1980, as well as having access to an outside viewing area with a view across the airfield.
