The restored Control Tower of the former WWII airfield at Dumfries, Scotland is the centerpiece of the Museum and is now a listed building. The Museum is run by volunteers and houses a large and ever expanding aircraft collection, aero engines and a very impressive display of artifacts and personal histories relating to aviation, past and present. Both civil and military are represented.There is also a small, but ever expanding collection of memorabilia honoring airborne forces.
