The history of the museum commences
in 1963 when a group of enthusiasts salvaged the remains of a Westland
Wallace discovered in woods near Cranwell. The Percival Prentice G-APIY
was the first aircraft to be based at Winthorpe when it was flown
there in 1967.
The aircraft, aero engines and aviation relics have been carefully
gathered together over the years and now represents one of the largest
non-profit making volunteer managed aviation museums in Great Britain.
A committee of volunteer trustees manages the museum's affairs. Work
on the various exhibits is undertaken by a small group of museum members
who do the work in their spare time. |
