This year’s Science Group visit is to RAF Cosford on Friday 16th May.
I am organising this visit and now offering places to some non-science group members.
The coach (Vallances Luxury…) will leave Hucknall Market Place at 09.00, arriving back at approx. 17.00. The cost will be £16.00, which includes the coach, museum donation and driver tip.
There are 3 optional pre-bookable tours, each costing £9.00.
If you are interested, please contact me via email davidrose98835@gmail.com
Some details from the website:
Discover the fascinating, sometimes surprising, array of aircraft and objects in the collection. Alongside the aircraft are free exhibitions, flight-related memorabilia and interactive displays. View a variety of flight-related artwork in our art gallery. Some of these are available to purchase if one takes your fancy.
In the National Cold War Exhibition look out for the life-size Russian dolls and for those with a head for heights, take the lift to the top of our viewing gallery and look down at the mighty Belfast Transporter.
In Hangar 1, you will find the 1:1 scale Airfix Spitfire – which was featured on BBC2’s James May Toy Stories – complete with a model pilot and lots more.
IN ADDITION
There are options of 3 dedicated talks provided 10 people wish to take part.
The Museum can organise tours for pre-booked groups. We have a few tours we can offer You and your group:
• Bomber Command Tour (1-hour tour)
• National Cold War Exhibition Tour (1-hour tour)
• Battle of Britain Tour (1-hour tour)
All our guided tours are £9.00 per head. To get the group rate, your group must have a minimum of 10 people. If you are interested in booking a guided tour, please contact our Customer Care team at midlands@rafmuseum.org. We ask that you give us a minimum of 2 weeks’ notice so that we can make the necessary arrangements. we also ask that you confirm your final numbers a week before your visit. This will then be the amount charged on the day.
I will collect the names of those interested in any of the 3 options but will not be collecting any money at this stage
