What’s Here
First opened in March 2008, the Wings Museum is housed in a former WW2 hangar at the former RAF Redhill. It has many displays and exhibits which illustrate the vital role played of the British Armed Services during World War Two. These includes the remains of Hampden P1273 which was lost on operations in 1942 and of a Lockheed F-5B Lightning which crashed in Wiltshire. Two complete aircraft and substantial sections of two more are undergoing on-site restoration to display condition.
