The Australian National Aviation Museum
Founded in 1962 and run by a dedicated group of volunteers and members, the Museum has expanded to have an collection of not just aircraft and engines, but models, uniforms and many other items associated with Australia's aviation history.
The collection has some very rare and unique examples of Australian made aircraft including the oldest surviving Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation (CAC) aircraft - Wirraway A20-10; a Victa AirTourer and a DAP Mk21 Beaufighter, one of only two Australian made variants left in the country and the only Beaufighter left in the world capable of ground running an engine. The Museum also owns the oldest surviving Beaufort Bomber which is now a massive restoration undertaking.
The Museum also has a shop and kiosk facility where you can purchase drinks, snacks, and pick up a book, poster, model kit or complete aircraft model for your collection.
Our Website is currently under maintenance and will return with a complete listing of the Aircraft, Engines and other Historical Assets held by the parent organisation, the Australian Aircraft Restoration Group. Due to a lack of available display and restoration facilities, not all aircraft are under restoration or on display. The Australian Aircraft Restoration Group has kindly loaned a number of the aircraft in its collection to other museums, to ensure that they are able to be viewed by Aircraft Enthusiasts.
