RAAF Museum

The RAAF Museum in Melbourne is the official museum of the Royal Australian Air Force and is located at RAAF Williams Point Cook Base in Victoria. It was founded in 1952 under the leadership of Air Marshal Sir George Jones and is now an independent unit overseen by the Air Training Wing. The collection includes historic aircraft that trace the development of the Australian air force from its beginnings as the Australian Flying Corps to the present day. In addition to static displays of aircraft and missiles, the museum also has a flying collection. It is operated by the Air Force Heritage Squadron, which flies its historic aircraft both at Point Cook and at the Temora Aviation Museum.
