479th Fighter Group at Wattisham
Wattisham museum
Wattisham Station Heritage consists of two buildings.
The former USAAF church (Nissen hut) houses an extensive photographic record of the airfield, uniforms and memorabilia.
A Cold War Hardened Aircraft Shelter (HAS) contains a former Black Arrows Display Team Hawker Hunter, a Phantom FGR2, a Meteor NF11, a Lightning cockpit, and Gazelle helicopter.
The HAS is situated on the former 436th Fighter Squadron, 479th Fighter Group USAAF dispersal area and is close to the USAAF memorial.
To visit the museum you'll need to book at least three days in advance as it's on a military base.
For more information see the Wattisham Station Heritage website.
