Always super helpful staff when I take my aviation-enthusiastic teenager. Great range in stock. Cups of tea kindly offered to patient parents and much appreciated.

We had a great time at this fantastic aviation shop. How great to be able to see aircraft land and take off at the observation space, then walk around the corner and take a model or book home! Keep up the great work; my kids are so pleased with the quality of the model plane and such detailed books to keep them enthused about aviation. Thanks!
