Overview

Visit the ‘Dangerous Skies’ exhibition which features stories from World War II at the Omaka Aviation Heritage Museum. These are tales of daring, valour and tragedy stretching from the British Isles to the forests of Germany, an embattled but courageous Russia and the Pacific. Three of the star attractions are an original de Havilland Mosquito, a Griffon powered Mk.XIVe Spitfire and a Focke Wulf 190. Women also feature more prominently in this exhibition and the Battle of Stalingrad is the stage for an immersive experience that is both entertaining and chillingly thought provoking.

Great Exhibition, don’t miss

Published on Nov, 2024

Fascinating museum. Do not miss it’s worth the trip from downtown Blenheim: informative, beautifully designed, great display of WWII airplanes. Good cafeteria. Only regret was not having the time to see all the exhibits.

Great afternoon

Published on Jul, 2024

Stunning array of beautifully maintained planes, some of which still fly. Friendly, informative volunteers. Amazing dioramas, both those created by Peter Jackson and the ones made by the volunteers.

A Great Aviation Display

Published on Mar, 2022

This is a great place to visit, it has authentic aircraft which has been set up beautifully and has some great displays of old aviation, well worth a visit.

A must do in Blenheim

Published on Jan, 2022

I didn't know what I expected to see in the WWII exhibition. It was quiet after the peak travel season but the friendly staff there was very knowledgeable of what on displays. He explained to me a lot that otherwise I won't know from just reading onsite. I couldn't believe I stayed quite long time to go through each display as a sole female traveler. Highly recommended if you are in Blenheim!

Awesome Place to visit for all ages

Published on Apr, 2021

What a great spot and brilliant exhibition. Enjoyed by 7 of us ranging in age from 14-50. Lovely friendly staff, great cafe and outstanding customer service. I contacted them today as we finished our campervan holiday and I thought I may have left souvenirs we purchased at the Centre. Heard back from them almost immediately confirming I did and offering to send to me at my home address ASAP. Thanks so much - hugely appreciated and make sure you visit :)
