Worth the wait!
Just to say a big thank you for a great day. I have waited 60 years to have that ride and it was amazing.
Wonderful team
We would like to thank everyone involved for making the day so enjoyable. The team leader made us feel very welcome and was an excellent ambassador for the museum for the museum, giving expert insight and knowledge to all, mixed with humour to make everyone feel relaxed
Wonderful tour
Today my husband and I were lucky enough to “climb into” your magnificent Lancaster, Just Jane and enjoy a wonderful hour and a half hearing all about this incredible aircraft. Your tour guide “Tim” was informative, personable and did a first rate job. We both felt quite emotional thinking of all those brave crew (and ground crew) who clearly went above and beyond. We have visited many times and will no doubt continue to do so but just wanted to thank everyone associated with this exciting aeroplane.
Fantastic day
