Museum Relics Around Vienna
Austria
February 2018 and June 2024
|
Bad Vöslau
Whilst an impressive collection of aircraft is listed for here, it is found in a private hangar situated on the far side of the airfield. It is not accessible without prior permission. However my visit was mainly to see the Vickers Viking which was found in the middle of the airfield. It had been on display in the terminal of Vienna's international airport for many years before it moved here in around 2016 and now subject to the vicious Austrian weather. |

It's hard work finding the few aircraft in the beautiful building. Don't forget to pay your two euro to allow you to take photographs otherwise they will catch you!.
