We shared a boy's day out here after wanting to visit for years! Easily accessible via M11 or A505 and entrance into the site/shop was easy on a Tuesday. Site has good facilities for wheelchair whilst café, kitchen and restaurant are available spread over the site. Toilets again are very well placed in nearly every display area. Cabin walk throughs for the Concorde (early prototype with all the extra sensors, cameras, still visible. Comet walk through etc. Site is split into various categories of Airspace, flying aircraft (workshops) and historic collection, Battle of Britain, American Air museum and Land warfare whilst historic Duxford covers local history, Battle of Britain Ops block. More than plenty to see, transit coaches to cover the mile long site to save tired legs though you'd need several visits to see everything!

We visited specifically to do the 'Avro evolution' talk and tour. Our host was John. Very very knowledgeable and a fantastic host. The tour includes climbing into the Lancaster fuselage (but alas you cannot get close to the cockpit) and a visit to ta Vulcan cockpit. Both really good experiences, but brought to life by John who points out little nuances that you might not immediately notice. Not cheap, but massively recommended.

We were at Duxford to complete an experience at the Aerial Collective and included was an admission to the IWM here. We only had time to visit 2 of the 4 hangars as the Spitfire flight took almost half a day of our time. I would recommend ensuring you have a whole day to take in all there is to see and do here. There is so much history and so many planes to experience! The pictures are from the Air and Space hangar and the active flying aircraft hangar. It is a very large display area and there are a huge number of displays to take in! Some of them such as the Concorde and Comet you can actually board and walk through. Some wonderful aircraft in the collection and they are well displayed with excellent information cards. As an added bonus this is an active aerodrome so you may see warbirds on the taxiways and even flying! There is a nice little Cafe between the Air/Space hangar and the Fighter Collection hangar. It is just by the entry and the store. There is a nice store for memorabilia as well. Easy access from London by train and lots of parking if driving.

Christmas event for work. £4.25 for water. Absolutely disgusting.

The first hanger that you come to and is great. Engines, planes, and stories. We were able to board part of a Lancaster, seeing how cramped it was. In addition there is the airborne forces museum

A really fascinating day out. Mutch more than I expected. The Concorde was awesome: smaller than I expected but with a complex flight deck. The Concorde was a testing Concorde so it had some of the test gear inside. Definitely need to visit again. I was also amazed that our landing fee included a 2hr ticket!
