Cornwall Aviation Heritage Centre

Aviation history, up close and personal - visit us and let your imagination go wild!

Historic Jet Fighters and Bombers

Walk through our fully functional, ex-Royal Air Force Hardened Aircraft Shelter hangar, in amongst historic jet fighters and bombers.

Climb into REAL jets from the 1940s, 1950s, 1960s, 1970s and 1980s! Tour our immense VC10 in-flight refuelling tanker and V-bomber training aircraft. Our volunteer guides will explain all about the exhibits, tell you the stories and make sure you have the very best time.

Browse our stunning collection of more than 1,500 model aircraft and watch the a real thing arriving and departing from the airport runway right next door.

Get on board our simulator and fly our very-own Hawker Hunter, taking-off from Newquay Airport and hurtling around Cornwall.

Take a rest in our comfortable café, have a hot or cold snack and a drink. Browse our on-site shop for toys, models, gifts, souvenirs and books (loads of books!).

Dogs are very welcome (on a lead, of course), so there is no need to leave anyone at home.
