South Gloucestershire Museums Group visits Aerospace Bristol
28 members of the museum group accepted an invitation to visit Aerospace Bristol on 8th November and were provided with refreshments and a talk by Linda Coode, Collections Manager. Linda gave the group a talk which outlined how the museum team brought this complex project to fruition overcoming many obstacles.
The museum certainly succeeds in showcasing the remarkable role played by the Bristol site in Britain’s aviation history and has many fascinating exhibits; Concorde being the star. The museum will as Linda says, “inspire the next generation” about science and engineering. Numerous exhibits – such as flight simulators and interactive options – show the museum is most definitely not just aimed at “plane spotters”.
