Behind the scenes at the Wings Museum near Balcombe in West Sussex.

Through the use of informative displays we aim to educate future generations of the sacrifices made by so many during World War Two in order to preserve the peace we all benefit from today. It is our goal to ensure that the memory of those who made such sacrifices are not lost through the passage of time, and that the courage and spirit of those individuals lives on to inspire us all.

Discover real history set among the sounds of the 1940s. Every artefact has its own unique story to tell. Whatever your interest or background you are bound to find something of interest at the Wings Aviation Museum!
