Wings Museum
The Wings Museum is an aviation museum located in Sussex, United Kingdom. It is housed in a 12,000 square feet (1,100 m2) hangar-like former farm building in Brantridge Lane, between Handcross and Balcombe. The museum displays mainly World War II-related flying memorabilia and equipment which have been donated, or which have been recovered and restored by volunteers.
The museum was originally located at Redhill Aerodrome. By 2011 it had relocated to Brantridge Lane.
In 2013, the museum hosted a fundraiser for the upkeep of the Bomber Command Memorial in nearby Green Park.
In 2015, volunteers restored a Bristol Beaufighter Mk1f which had crashed 75 years earlier.
Visitors to the museum can walk inside a complete fuselage from a Douglas C-47 Dakota which was used on D-Day and later during the filming of the television series Band of Brothers.
There are some very rare aircraft from World War II and some of them are the only ones of their type in the UK.
