The Mosquito is the aircraft Jerry Yagen is most proud of. No great surprise you would think, but he acquires aircraft by the month and 95% of those in his museum are flown regularly. He bought 4 new aircraft in September alone.

The museum is, in my opinion, the finest of its type in the world and the airshows are amazing. It's very accessible, no ropes or barriers at all.

As I said, the Mosquito is his pride and joy - even when put against his Spitfire, Hurricane, Mustang, B17, Ju 52, incoming Me 262, FW190 and so many more. He is an Anglophile and has many British aircraft and other toys/accessories such as WWII armoured vehicles, telephone boxes, post boxes, uniforms and more. He also has a V1 (and has run the engine) and an enigma machine.

Seeing is believing, the best time to visit is for the Warbirds Over The Beach airshow held every May. The Canadian Lancaster is normally there too.

Hard sell over!
