All the staff were very informative, and a big thank you to... read more Jeff for giving the children a taste of carrying a heavy parachute, and the experience of jumping out of the back of the plane. Money well spent, and we would definitely recommend a visit. Thanks again

This is a unique collection and well worth a visit.

  Was very interesting ended up talking to 2 very nice volunteers who gave me and my friend some very interesting history about all the artifacts in the building... read more and about how the museu

  Smaller than I thought it would be be but still very glad I went along. Lots of exhibits put together with a lot of love and enthusiasm.

I... read more made a joke about shrapnel in the title but it seems like all the personal collections from all the schoolboys collecting this at the time has been utilised which is really touching, Bearing in mind it was life and death for the airmen it seems quite appropriate in a way and the fate of a lot of them is detailed in the exhibit.

Well worth a visit with lots of interesting stuff & excellent value for money .. .

  Very much enjoyed our second visit to the Wings Museum. There is so much to see and take in that it merits a second trip.

Each object has a... read more story, many profoundly moving.

We plan to go back again when the radio shack is open.

There is even a fuselage from a plane that was uses in the film Band Of Brothers.

A very informative and interesting couple of hours there will amaze you.

  Lovely collection of interesting artefacts from WWII, cleverly assembled to tell stories from the time. Well-informed volunteers provide a wealth of extra information.

  In an unassuming farm barn, in the middle of the rolling Sussex countryside, lies an absolute gem of a place, which filled up my Sunday beautifully. This is a quite... read more staggering collection of 12,000+ artefacts and effects from the Second World War. By chance, I was seeing tge rarest of Pacific War aircraft with a visiting chool party of Japanese students and aeroplane remains from the Asian tundra with a family of Russians, in this museum which encourages a hands on, engaged and wonderfully informative approach. I've sat in cockpits, cocked a Lee Enfield, rung a scramble bell, sat in an Austin 7, heard an air-raid siren, peered through a Spitfire's reflective gunsight, been shown some significant reatorations and so much more.

The volunteers are exactly as they should be - welcoming, helpful, passionate and go above and beyond to make your visit perferct. The potential relocation and upscaling of the museum to new premises is very, very exciting and I look forward to supporting it and all that it stands for, long into the future. The only negative was one of my own-making, that simply being that I had never visited before now. This place is incredible.

  amazing experience, lots to look at and a wide variety of cool items salvaged from ww2, came here with my dad for father's day/ his birthday and was not disappointed

  Have seen the signs for this museum for many years so was curious to check it out. It is jam-packed with exhibits and while planes are the main feature, there... read more was also a lot of other things related to WW2 to see. Volunteers are very knowledgeable and friendly. Good value for money and worth the visit

  This is a great little aviation / WW2 museum. I enjoyed it even more than I expected too; my three year old daughter enjoyed it too, which was a bonus.

  We had often driven past this museum so decided to visit. It was really interesting and the 2 volunteers on duty were really friendly and knowledgeable. There are so many... read more artefacts including from planes that were shot down or crashed and these have come from various countries. There is also a section on the home guard and various life stories of different service men. If you are even a little bit interested in the 2nd world war this is definitely a place you should visit. The only thing I would say is if you visit in the winter wrap up warm as the museum is in an outbuilding and there is no heating so it was a bit cold.

  The fascinating way it was laid out. Giving an insight to aircraft from the WW2. Also had a great chat with the person in the radio shack

  Really interesting museum volunteers who were more than happy to talk about the displays. Lots of artefacts although no complete aircraft as all come from crash sites. It... read more really is different and fascinating.

Very enjoyable visit.

  Took the kids here, aged 7 and 8, and had a throughly good time. There’s lots of interesting artefacts in the museums and pieces of WW2 memorabilia and part of... read more old panes and munitions etc. my particular favourite was the old piano from the RAF mess room, I expect that was the focal point of some lively drinking sessions back in the day. Plenty for the kids to see and do. The guys overseeing the museum were helpful and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

  Went here with my father and son. There was a wide variety of artifacts and memorabilia on display to keep us all interested. My son particularly enjoyed sitting in the... read more cockpit of the training plane. The highlights were the remains of the Russian & Japanese aircraft. We all enjoyed the visit - it would be great if a guide book were available!

  Second visit to this amazing museum and collection of ww2 artefacts. Loved going inside the Dakota and the fact it was a prop from Band of Brothers is amazing. ... read more /> So much to see and learn. Love this museum.

  This is a fascinating museum, with exhibits displayed as they were found, not repaired. It puts another aspect on the awful times of war.
A very interesting exhibit is photos... read more and drawings from one of the camps. They are not pleasant to look at, considering the subject matter, but look at them we must, to understand a little what went on.
Lovely volunteers to chat to too.

  Great little spot tucked away in an unsuspecting area. Merlin engine run is a must-see (hear) if you can make one of these dates. Only thing I'd like more is... read more a physical ticket... the receipt isn't much of a memento.

  Made a visit to this very good museum on the 25th June, and was made very welcome by the volunteers and owners.

Lots of artifacts to see with... read more some great stories, of very brave men.

I can highly recommend a visit. It has easy access and is well

  Very interesting visit, really brought home to us the reality of WW2 being fought in the skies over this country and Europe. The personal stories of those heroes made it... read more very moving.

  Great little museum. It doesn't have a load of planes like some air museums but it does have a lot of interesting stories. You need to take time... read more to read the captions to get the most out of it. Enthusiastic staff. The radio shack didn't look interesting at first but some of the working exhibits mad it worth

  Found almost by accident (a leaflet at another site) and decided to take a chance although wasn't sure what to expect - whether there was enough to see. We... read more certainly were not disappointed. The exhibits were accompanied by plenty of information and often accompanied by information about those involved, not just those who gave their lives but those who survived. While looking at a restored aeroplane is great, being able to see the salvaged aircraft and other items makes it all the more interesting. A great find.

  We loved this museum! Fascinating mix of war time objects and salvaged planes. Really interesting stories told of the aircraft and war time and lives tragically ended too soon.
