Aviation Museums
and airworthy collections
RAF Museum Hendon
Opened in 1972 by Her Majesty the Queen and located on the former RAF aerodrome at Hendon, North London,
the RAF museum has a superb collection of over 100 aircraft from around the world, as seen below.
Date of Visits: 18th November 2012 / 06th April 2013 / 04th January 2015
In 2018 the Museum underwent a major transformation to celebrate the RAF Centenary,
so some displays are likely to be different to that shown below.
