Visiting Aircraft

The Cornwall Aviation Heritage Centre is lucky enough to be positioned directly between Newquay Airport and RAF St. Mawgan and, whilst the station itself does not carry out any flying activities, the RAF (and various other NATO air forces) often use the huge runway of the airport for landing and approach training.

As a consequence we frequently have visiting aircraft flying circuits and ‘touch-and-goes’, all for your entertainment!

The Cornwall Aviation Heritage Centre is now permanently closed due to the the termination of its premises lease. The project to relocate the museum has been set-aside as the request for 8 months deferral of notice to allow time to prepare the new site was refused. Thank you to all CAHC's supporters, especially the SDL Foundation which offered to provide £1,000,000 to finance the aborted relocation project.

Cornwall Council has terminated CAHC's tenancy and we may never open again. If you would like to help fight this decision by Cornwall Council, please sign our online petition at - https://www.change.org/p/save-cornwall-aviation-heritage-centre
