Take a Seat in Our Spitfire
Dreams come true at the RAF Museum this August as we unveil our new sit-in ‘Spitfire Experience’.
For the first time ever, visitors can now climb inside our Mk XVI Spitfire, take the pilot’s seat, learn about the Aircraft and feel the thrill of sitting in one of the most iconic cockpits
Tickets: £4 per person (BoB 75th offer limited to end of September)
Location: Historic Hangars, RAF Museum London
September is the 75th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain and to mark this occasion, we are offering a special price of £4 per person to access to Spitfire MK16 Cockpit.
All tickets for the Spitfire Experience contribute towards the ‘Historic Hendon Appeal’.
The RAF Museum receives funding from the MoD that allows the Museum to open its doors to visitors. In order to conserve our collection and improve the Museum we rely on the museum’s supporters – the Museum needs your help. 2018 will mark the 100th anniversary of the RAF and we are looking to transform the Museum through 4 new exhibitions, new learning programmes and better facilities for visitors.
We have already completed part of this project through the new First World War in the Air exhibition and have raised over £12milion towards future works (out of £23milion).
All donations made through the ‘Spitfire Experience’ will support the ‘Historic Hendon’ phase of the project which will tell the story of the museum’s former life as an airfield, it was on the airfield where the museum now stands that Spitfires departed for the Battle of Britain and Winston Churchill first learnt to fly. Donations will also help to ensure that the museum is enjoyed by the local community for generations to come.
