Super centre full of information and real jets on display. There is also a simulator you can have a go in, for all ages young and old. Would highly recommend... read more a visit if you have an interest in planes.
8 children (age range 8 - 12)plus 4 adults visited today and had a ball. Very educational in a fun and fascinating way. Kids hung on our wonderful guides every... read more word. So worth the 2 and a half hour round trip. I'm ex cabin crew and I learned a lot today. Many "so that's why they do that" moments. Loads of wonderful photo opportunities. Very generous and informative staff. Great day out that's suitable for all age groups / boys and girls. Kids loved wearing the jumpsuit and being able to see all the aircrafts outside. Flight simulator is incredible. Highlight was inflating the lifevest. We all jumped! Definitely worth a visit and would be great destination for school tours. Very reasonably priced.( plus local Supermacs do deal for groups visiting- €4 kids meal.) We finished the day off with trip to viewing gallery in Shannon Airport which is just down the road to see the real thing in action. Thanks again to the wonderful staff there today.
If you have a few hours to spare I would highly recommend a visit to Atlantic Airventure in Shannon the museum is fab, the staff who work there are very... read more knowledgeable and made our visit very enjoyable. Well worth a visit
I had an hour booked in the simulator and was really looking fiat's to it. The briefing beforehand was fairly straightforward but there was so much to remember. It... read more didn't matter however as when i got to the simulator the pilot in charge was very clear in his instructions. I couldn't believe how realistic the simulator felt. It is a real 737 cockpit converted into a simulator. I started straight away into a take off and flew around before attempting a landing. It was so realistic that i was actually nervous. After the first landing i was given different scenarios culminating with an engine failure. I came out of the simulator mentally exhausted with the biggest grin. I can't reccommend this any more highly. If you ever wanted to try flying a commercial jet then this is the place to do it.
I couldn't recommend the experience any more highly
Celebrated our son’s 15th birthday here and it exceeded our expectations. Plenty of information generously given by the pilot and hands on flying experience made for a great day. Highly... read more recommended.
We were on vacation in Ireland and as an aviation geek I never go on vacation without visiting a local aviation museum.
This one is much smaller than expected but... read more it's worth the visit for any aviation geek.
The interior section is well laid-out (although a bit too dark to me).
The few planes outside lack explanatory signs and I always find it painful to see a propeller aircraft amputated from its propeller.
My children aren't fluent in english to we didn't book any tour but they look great though.
I got an hour on the simulator as a present from my wife, and all I can say is WOW. You start off with a briefing on what's what on... read more the plane which is excellent and then into the cockpit. I must say the experience of sitting in the cockpit really does make you feel like you are actually flying. The instruction was excellent, he answered all my questions and brought me through everything explaining what was what in the cockpit. I did a number of landings and take off's and then I got to fly over a city at low altitude. You can also fly in or out of a specific airport if you wish. All in all highly recommended and I will definitely be back for a future flight.
It's lovely to visit somewhere where the people give the tour and demonstrations have so much passion for the subject. Our visit to the Air Atlantic Ventures was brilliant.... read more The kids got to dress up as pilots and aircraft personnel and we had almost an hour in the simulators. We then had a tour of the museum with many actual plane cockpits and memorabilia. Then a tour of the planes outside. There were seven of us from 8 to adult and all had fun.
We dropped in here on a wet morning while holidaying in the area for a few days. My wife and I and two kids 7 and 4 really enjoyed the... read more experience. We were welcomed at the reception counter and made feel very welcome. Eddie the owner gave us a guided tour of the museum, he was very informative and interesting and you could listen to his stories for ages. He recalled his own career as a Senior Aviation Engineer in the RAF.
Our guys got the opportunity to put on real junior aviation suits and we had plenty of time for photos.
Great place for anyone with and interest in the Aviation industry.
Thanks for sharing with us.
