PLEASE NOTE THE COLLECTION IS IN THE PROCESS OF MOVING FROM A SECURE MOD ESTABLISHMENT TO OLD SARUM AIRFIELD WHERE THE COLLECTION WILL BE COMPLETELY OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. THE COLLECTION WILL THEN BROADEN ITS BASE TO COVER ALL THE AVIATION HERITAGE IN THE SALISBURY AND SALISBURY PLAIN AREA. BRITISH MILITARY AVIATION STARTED IN 1909 AT LARKHILL ON SALISBURY PLAIN WITH BOSCOMBE DOWN AND OLD SARUM STARTING IN 1917. ALL THESE ESTABLISHMENTS CONTINUE IN OPERATION TO THIS DAY.
