Set amongst the massive, looming silhouettes of a complex of ex-RAF HAS (Hardened Aircraft Shelter) buildings that were designated as a forward operating base for the Buccaneer Maritime Strike force.

Cornwall Aviation Heritage Centre puts you straight into the atmosphere of 1950s, 60s and 70s military flying.

Looking is good, listening is great, but touching is better! Most of our aircraft are accessible, inside and out, so that you can have a guided tour (of the big ones) or sit in the pilot’s seat of the fighters, and imagine what it might be like to fly in those amazing aircraft.
