RAF Museum

MilitaryScienceClosed · Opens 10amFreeColindale

Il RAF Museum si trova sul sito del vecchio London Aerodrome a Hendon, ed è una collezione aeronautica davvero straordinaria. Oltre 80 aerei riempiono diversi hangar enormi — da un Sopwith Camel a un Eurofighter Typhoon, passando per uno Spitfire, un Lancaster bomber e la cabina di pilotaggio di un Vulcan, in cui è possibile sedersi. È un po' un viaggio arrivare fino a nord di Londra, ma l'ingresso è completamente gratuito e l'affluenza è molto inferiore rispetto ai musei del centro. I simulatori di volo interattivi sono molto amati dalle famiglie.
