National Museum of Flight

The National Museum of Flight Scotland opened to the public in 1975. The site occupies part of a former RAF airfield, now an historic monument. In 1919 the airship R34 left from East Fortune to make the first east to west crossing of the Atlantic by air. The collection includes a number of R34 relics. The aviation collections include aircraft, engines, rockets, photographs, a reference library, archives, and models, flying clothing, instruments and propellers.
