Just got back from the Ulster Aviation Society near Lisburn, and I was seriously impressed. If you're in the area, or even passing through, I'd highly recommend checking it out.
They have a really interesting collection of aircraft, and what's great is you can get right up close to them. You can even sit in the cockpit of some – definitely a highlight!
They also have a solid exhibition on Northern Ireland's aviation history and its wartime connections, which I found really informative.
Also, I heard they're currently looking for volunteers. If you're passionate about aviation and have some time to spare, they need help with things like tours and general upkeep. Might be a cool way to get more involved.
Overall, if you're into aircraft or local history, the Ulster Aviation Society is well worth a visit.
Anyone else been? What were your thoughts?
