Thanks for that, we're slowly getting to grips with what we can and cannot do under the latest legislation!

It's nice to be able to report that today we have a small team of museum volunteers working on giving Hastings TG517 some much needed TLC.

Thanks everyone, we're slowly returning to normal volunteering & getting the aircraft ready for when we re-open the external displays on 16th April 2021.

A new Photo Gallery has been added to the museum website that highlights the spruce-up work that's now underway as the museum moves towards reopening its external display areas on 16th April 2021.

Many thanks for the feedback, which I will share with everyone at the museum - it's nice to be trying to return to some sort of normality; but there's still a bit of a way to go!

We're open again next Friday, Saturday & Sunday!!
