点评:The Museum of Berkshire Aviation is located to the east of the town of Woodley.
I took bus 13 from outside Reading station to close to the venue. Buses 14 and 19A would suffice as well. Journey time is between 35-50 minutes depending on traffic.
I only had a half hour window to look around but thoroughly enjoyed the aeronautical exhibits.
The museum is housed in an old hanger at the former Woodley Airfield. Miles Aircraft Ltd was based here. It was eventually bought out by Handley Page.
There are numerous old planes on display. Mostly Miles aircraft, including a Martinet, plus examples from Handley Page and Fairey Aviation.
There’s an interesting display about Charles Lindbergh who bought a Mohawk from Miles several years after his Atlantic crossing.
There were photographs of air displays and races, in one of which a certain Amy Johnson came third.
I liked the wooden model of Concorde.
Admission was £6. The volunteers at the museum were most friendly and helpful.
In winter the museum is open from 10.30-4 Wednesday and from 12-4 on Sunday.
翻译:伯克郡航空博物馆位于伍德利镇东部。
我从雷丁火车站外乘坐13路公交车前往博物馆附近。14路和19A路公交车也都可以。车程大约35-50分钟,具体时间取决于交通状况。
我只有半个小时的参观时间,但非常享受这些航空展品。
博物馆位于伍德利机场旧址的一个机库内。迈尔斯飞机有限公司曾设在这里,后来被汉德利·佩奇公司收购。
馆内展出了许多老式飞机,大部分是迈尔斯公司的飞机,包括一架马蒂内特飞机,以及汉德利·佩奇和费尔雷航空公司的飞机。
还有一个关于查尔斯·林白的有趣展览,他在横渡大西洋几年后从迈尔斯公司购买了一架莫霍克飞机。
还有一些飞行表演和比赛的照片,其中一张照片显示艾米·约翰逊获得了第三名。
我很喜欢协和式飞机的木制模型。
门票6英镑。博物馆的志愿者们非常友好热情。
冬季,博物馆周三上午10:30至下午4:00开放,周日中午12:00至下午4:00开放。
