This museum was a nice way to spend a sunny afternoon. The exhibits were interesting, the volunteers very friendly and helpful and I’d say the entrance fee is fair (£6 per adult and our daughter got in for free.) I would definitely say it’s an attraction for a dry day as much of it is outside and you spend a lot of time walking between hangers. There is a cafe but it was not open on the day we visited. The gift shop is decent. All in all I’d say worth a visit if you’re at a loose end or if the subject matter is of particular interest to you, but I wouldn’t go out of my way.

Had a great time today. It was thrilling to see the Tornado GR4 up close and personal but there are plenty of other things to see. Staff are really knowledgeable and take the time to answer all you questions. Kevan was great showing us the amazing Tornado, thanks!

Excellent collection of real life stories of airmen ( and women). Great displays and lots to see and hear. It says 1-2 hours but if you want to read things, we’d suggest about 3 hours to be able to read all the information and hear the videos etc. Lovely helpful volunteers. We live only 12 miles away and cannot believe it’s taken me so long to visit the museum.

Visited with brother and father and father in law and staff were very friendly and helpful. Excellent experience seeing all the planes and old military equipment and vehicles. I never realised just how big the tornado jets were. The history of the Montrose air station goes back to 1913, although most of the original land is now an industrial site. It took us 2 and 3 quarter hours to do it but if you were going to read everything on display then add another hour on to that.

It’s a good small place which you can access by the tour of train also which starts from Brechin. Makes you feel like the old time Indian steam locomotives. It’s not a time journey for someone coming from India as this prevails in India as well. The airforce station is very neat and clean but does not having any eating place so better carry your food and stuff

Really nice museum. Great history and run entirely by volunteers. Local council should be much more involved. Amazing and dedicated people keeping it going. Lots for kids to look at and we'll done for allowing them free entry. The poppy remembrance wall is a really nice idea.

What a fantastic place to visit. Lots to see, learn and so many personal stories to read about the men and women who worked and lived at the base. Thank you to the very welcoming staff who made the visit such an enjoyable experience.

Well worth a visit - even if it's just to see how on earth they managed to squeeze a tornado into that hangar. It's very carefully parked. This is a really friendly little museum - good for an hour or two. There's an introductory video giving the history of the base which is well worth watching (13 mins) and the displays include reconstructions of offices and accommodation as well as planes both indoors and outdoors. There is a restoration shed where volunteers are very happy to talk about the work in progress. Children of 15 and under go free which is absolutely great but there isn't a concession for students of 16 plus which was a bit disappointing as our 17 year old son is still in full time education. Still, it's all in a good cause I suppose.

What a truly wonderful place with a force of amazing volunteers. So much to see and learn. This was the highlight of our holiday. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. Such amazing stories of bravery and ingenuity to keep you entertained. The 1940's room was truly excellent and just one of many high quality exhibits. Don't hesitate, money well spent and there is a little shop too. Dog friendly 😁
