Wings Museum Sussex

The Wings Museum is affiliated with the Royal Air Forces Association, RAFA, and is housed in a large "hangar" style building in Sussex. Each artefact and item of memorabilia tells its own unique story, set alongside the sounds and music of the time. History appears to come alive in this unique nostalgic experience.

At the centre of the museum is a complete fuselage from a Douglas C-47 Dakota used during the filming of the TV hit series Band of Brothers. Here you can walk inside and experience what it was like to have been a paratrooper on D-Day.

In the Ghosts of the Tundra Hall section, view the remains of discoveries such as the 6 Bell P-63 Kingcobras, the Handley Page Hampden and the Douglas A-20 Boston. The Wings Museum is the only place in Europe where visitors can see aircraft which have been recovered from the Russian front battlefields where they were shot down over 70 years ago.

There are also original items from the Battle of Britain, the Blitz, the Home Front including the real Dad's Army, Russian Front, D-Day, Bomber Command, US 8th Air Force, Luftwaffe and much more.

Items on display include aero engines, airframes, cockpits, aircraft gun turrets, uniforms, medals, flying equipment, and hundreds of personal stories of war, sacrifice and courage.

Price includes admission and a guided tour.
