✈️ More than a museum, this is over a century of aviation history.
Montrose Air Station became Britain’s first operational military airfield in 1913. Today, its museum keeps alive the stories of the people who served and worked there.
Explore historic buildings filled with aircraft, photographs, medals, uniforms and personal objects. Step inside recreated wartime rooms and discover how life at RAF Montrose changed through two world wars.
Come face to face with an impressive collection of aircraft, from a full-size replica First World War B.E.2a to the powerful Panavia Tornado GR4.
There is plenty for younger visitors to see and experience too, making it a fascinating day out for the whole family.
The museum is open Friday, Saturday and Sunday until 8 November. It will then close for winter before reopening in February 2027.
📌 Save this post and plan your visit before the end of the season.
