The Trenchard Museum aims to preserve and display items that relate to the history of Royal Air Force Halton. The museum was named in honour of the man who is regarded as the Founding Father of the Royal Air Force, and also who founded the Aircraft Apprentice scheme with which the good name of Halton has often been synonymous.

 The Museum was opened by Viscount Trenchard, grandson of Marshal of the Royal Air Force    Viscount Trenchard on 26 June 1999, funded and supported by the RAF Halton Apprentice    Association (RAFHAA). Since then, the Museum’s collection has grown to include a myriad of artefacts including 3 complete aircraft; 2 cockpits; 9 aero engines and a range of displays, models and memorabilia which illustrate life, training and notable events in the Station’s history.
