What an amazing collection of warplanes! This small and apparently independently owned museum had one of the most interesting collections of warplanes that I have seen in New Zealand! There were two guides there on the day we visited who were extremely friendly and informative. I was even able to climb inside one of the planes to get a feel for what it would be like to be their pilot! I would definitely recommend it as a stop along your way if you have any interest at all in airplanes, aviation history, or war history. You won’t be disappointed!!

Outstanding exhibits. Rare opportunity to see rare aircraft. Great stories of local people's wartime and peace time lives. Very capable team there only to keen to walk around and tell you history and interesting stories. Will be going back to have another look.
We loved going there. It was not busy so we had all the time in the world and even got a guide from one of the volunteers. Amazing planes they have at a great location. We would to be there when an event or airshow is one. Seeing the old and new planes from this tiny, unmanned, airport would be so cool. Especially if one was able to view it from the old control tower. Long story short: we would absolutely recommend this to anybody with some time at hands and an interest in aviation. Last bit: check the opening times, they are so small that they are not always open. We will back, sometime, soon!
Very nice museum....credit to all the volunteers who are involved. Spent 2 hours there and could easily have spent longer. Great value at 10 per adult and kids free. Would recommend visiting.
Amazing collection of aircraft and extremely accommodating people running the museum. Highly recommended to everyone to visit specially for Children!
Wonderful experience. Only 10, value for money. Very friendly people. Great displays.
Thank you to the friendly guys who work here, especially to our guide who took us around and shared much interesting things about the exhibits. Lots to see here if you are an aviation enthusiast! My husband, children and myself enjoyed our visit very much.
Blown away at the amount of history shoved into this place. Absolutely loved spending time here. Definitely a place to kill some time.
