It's a great museum for all avation lovers at any age! The 737-800NG simulator is just like the real thing (except the hydraulic movement)! Great place to visit yourself or... read more with friend and family! Great fun!

She wasn’t helpful and basically felt like we were unwelcome by her presence.

Our instructor John, who is real commercial pilot, was excellent and guided us through our flying experience. It cost the four of us a total of 87 Euro which included a tour of the museum. We all considered it a great experience, and well worth the cost.

The boys and girls were equally interested and totally excited by the simulator experiences, the lifejacket demonstration and the viewing of the planes. To cap it all, they even took photos for me and emailed them on afterwards. Cannot praise the team highly enough. We will be back.

It had quite a good range of planes and other flight related items. A great place to go if you're any way interested in planes and great for a wet day.

  Brilliant place for families and tour groups. There's also different camps throughout the year, where children of all ages get to see flight simulator in operation, from inside.

  This was a wonderful find, we spotted it when we went to Mac Donald’s on a road trip and decided to call in on our return journey later in the... read more week. First we had a mini flight simulation experience (one can dress up in pilot’s uniforms and hat, great photo opportunities especially for kids of up to around age 13 - 14). Reception staff, Sarah was very helpful and organised a mini simulation session for us as we were literally paying a ‘flying visit’ (groan). We were shown around the vintage planes by a very knowledgeable and friendly young guide called Jack, who was a walking encyclopaedia of information about aviation and the planes on display. He really impressed us and is a huge asset to the museum. Unfortunately we were limited time wise and had to rush through the last part of the display but I hope to return sometime. Well worth a visit!

  It was a really pleasant visit to museum and the 737-800 simulator!

We came in with my girlfriend for a daytrip on a weekend holiday in Dublin. Quite easy... read more drive on the motorways even for a "wrongsideoftheroad" first timer 🙂 It took about 2,5 hours one way from Dublin to Shannon with a coffee stop on the way. From far far away people the easiest way is to rent a car, but you can get there by bus or train via Limerick too. Came in early and someone had cancelled their sim booking, so I got to fly 1 hour instead of planned 30mins 🙂 Experience was definately worth booking the simulator.

Museum itself is not very large compared to some similar places I've been, but the warm welcoming staff and the 737 simulator make up for the size and there are a lot of things to see and try for people of all ages outside the simulator and on the yard aswell. As an aviation and flight simulator nut I can recommend it to everyone who have any interest in flying things.
