The Royal Air Force Museum at Cosford houses one of the largest aviation collections in the United Kingdom. Over 80 historic aircraft are displayed in three fully heated hangars on an active airfield. The collection spans over 90 years of aviation history from the first crossing of the channel in 1909 and the first civil transport flights in August 1919, to Polaris, lately Britain's nuclear deterrent.

Heroes, whatever high ideas we may have of them, are mortal and not divine. We are all as God made us and many of us much worse. - John Osborne
