Fine aviation museum centred on the history of the airfield once here - "the birthplace of British Aviation". Lots of panels to read and many recovered aircraft parts to look at. Guide will talk you around the exhibits and history if required. I'd allow 90 to 120 mins for a good look round. Situated in the middle of Sheppey's three prison sites, if you're visiting from outside the area you're going to have to drive (limited bus service from Sheerness I believe). Adult entry £2, a bargain 👍

What a hidden gem. The museum is run by an extremely enthusiastic group of volunteers. We first saw a short film before exploring the displays. We were fortunate to be joined by a volunteer who was able to explain all the exhibits. The displays were well presented with plenty of explanatory notes. We were amazed at how much aviation history stemmed from the area. Make a visit to the cafe - the cakes are great.

One of the best museums for history of the aviation. Entrance Free of charge. Largest collection of old photographs and artefacts stored this place. The Curator Nigel has wonderful knowledge about every item in this place. He will explain everything to you and answer all your questions. Amazing stories about early stages of aeroplanes.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the East-church Aviation Museum with my enthusiastic nephew, and I must say, our experience was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we stepped foot into this hidden gem of aviation history, we were transported into a world of awe-inspiring wonder. The level of attention and detail provided by the gentlemen who work there was truly unprecedented.

As we embarked on our journey through the museum, we were immediately captivated by the sheer passion and knowledge exhibited by the museum staff. Their enthusiasm for aviation was infectious, and they effortlessly conveyed their deep understanding of the subject matter. It was evident that they took immense pride in sharing the story of East-church's rich aviation heritage.

The museum itself was a testament to the dedication and meticulousness of its curators. Every corner was adorned with carefully curated artefacts, each with its own unique tale to tell. The level of detail in their approach was nothing short of unbelievable. From meticulously restored aircraft models to authentic uniforms, the exhibits were a feast for the eyes and a testament to the staff's commitment to preserving history.

What truly set the East-church Aviation Museum apart was the interactive and engaging nature of the displays. The staff took great care to ensure that visitors of all ages could fully immerse themselves in the world of aviation. My nephew, in particular, was enthralled by the opportunity to see the equipment of a vintage aircraft and feel like a true pilot. It was an experience he will cherish for a lifetime.

The museum also boasted an impressive collection of archival materials, including photographs, documents, and personal accounts. These resources added a compelling narrative to the displays, allowing us to gain a deeper appreciation for the significance of East-church in the development of aviation. The passion and dedication of the staff shone through in their ability to bring these stories to life.

In addition to the remarkable exhibits, the museum offered educational programs and events that further enhanced the overall experience. The staff's commitment to fostering a love for aviation in the younger generation was evident, and they went above and beyond to make learning fun and accessible.

The East-church Aviation Museum is a true gem, and a visit there is an unforgettable journey through the history of flight. Whether you're an aviation enthusiast, a history buff, or simply seeking an engaging and educational outing, this museum is an absolute must-visit. Prepare to be astounded by the level of attention to detail, the passion of the staff, and the immersive experience that awaits you. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

So, if you're ready to embark on an extraordinary adventure into the world of aviation, gather your loved ones, especially any aviation enthusiasts, and head to the East-church Aviation Museum. It's an experience that will leave you in awe and inspire a deep appreciation for the remarkable...

Visited yesterday 21/9/2023 and thoroughly enjoyed it. Not only is there the Aviation museum but also Sheppey Honey Producer Derrick Stevens who gave us a fascinating talk and demonstration about honey bees and the workings of the hive. You can purchase jars of honey and he also sells candles etc made of beeswax. Check out Sheppey Honey on Facebook. The aviation museum was undergoing reorganisation due to a new extension so we didn't get to see any exhibits but a lovely gentleman gave us a talk about the site etc. He was very knowledgeable and full of interesting facts. We will definitely be coming back to do the museum properly on our next visit to Sheppey. There is also a lovely, spotlessly clean tea room, with wonderful staff, called The Blitz for some refreshment. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and...
