Air Force Museum of New Zealand
The Air Force Museum of New Zealand holds the national collection of the Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF). The Museum’s role is to preserve and present the history of New Zealand’s military aviation through its collection.
The museum features objects covering the early days of New Zealand military aviation; the interwar years which saw the formation of the RNZAF in 1937; World War II; the RNZAF’s campaign in the Pacific, and the post-war period to the present day. The collection also includes objects from former enemy forces.
In addition to the semi-permanent displays, the Museum provides two changing exhibitions each year in the Cochrane Gallery.
