Cornwall Aviation Heritage Museum

Bad news here sadly as it seems that the local council want to evict the museum from its current airport site despite it being a valuable tourist attraction for the area and being up to date with rent. Presumably the site is wanted for development but no alternative is being offered. The museum is therefore likely to close for good next month and has to vacate by next March. There is a good chance that exhibits may be scrapped. A petition is on line to oppose.

    I saw this on social media. We have a similar situation here in Edmonton with the Alberta Aviation Museum but it’s centered around the condition of the hanger it resides in. Marcus

    It's certainly a shame. I saw some of the collection around 8 years ago when with a different museum that then folded. The new one seemed to be doing OK until the council came along 🙁
