The newest Hall at the museum houses a 1950s Line Hut which serves as the focal point of the Museum’s preservation efforts – the Hunter Mk 5 and the English Electric Lightning F53 – both aircraft generously donated to the museum by Raymond and the late Meryl Hansed.
Also on view is a Link Trainer under restoration and a presentation on Operation Musketeer – the Suez Emergency of 1956.
The Tangmere Museum has 3 computer-controlled Flight Simulators for visitors to ‘fly’.
It also has a D-4 Link Trainer which may be flown by suitably-qualified visitors by prior arrangement only. Please click HERE for terms and conditions of use.
The Museum is pleased to be able to offer speakers to interested groups or societies on a range of subjects connected with the history of operations at RAF Tangmere and other military aviation subjects.
The presentations are usually given as an audio/visual presentation using the Museum's equipment. Our presentations can be tailored to suit audiences ranging from specialist societies to community based groups and range in length from 40 to 90 minutes depending on the subject matter.
Further details of the full range of presentations and the availability of speakers can be obtained by calling the museum on 01243 790090, by emailing your interest to director@tangmere-museum.org.uk or by letter marked for the attention of the Director.
