Just read about your Aviation Museum Project in PCFlight 4/2017. I think it is a good idea to try this way as well.

A worthy venture needing all the support that local businesses, aviation companies, individuals, local and central government can give. So many talented young people need to be brought into Aviation to keep Ireland top of the board.

Atlantic Air Venture is an incredible place for Shannon's community, especially for students. Not only the museum must be kept alive, but also future plans and good initiatives must become real. Only this way students can benefit from various events organised at Atlantic Air Venture, events which provide the basis for their planned future career in aviation industry. This is one of the pillars for Irish aviation industry to make sure that next industry professionals are highly skilled and educated.

I attended an Aviation Camp at AAA last Summer and, although I am from Bermuda, I believe the Museum should be preserved at all costs for future aviators like myself and everyone else to enjoy. It was a wonderful experience.

All the best with your ‘venture’ Jane!

Good day all, I like to thank Mrs Jane Magill for her personal tour through the museum. It was very inspiring. I advise you to visit this museum. You will learn new things about aviation and you will meet friendly people. Best regards, Inge

I visited a couple of times the museum with my two boys who went also to the Aviation camp - They had great fun and learned so much about flying and Aviation. The Museum Team and Jane are so dedicated in promoting Aviation among the general public and youngsters which is great to see especially with a limited budget. They put so much effort to preserve the Aviation heritage and educate the youth - I'm pretty sure the Museum will keep growing and will bring more Aviation Enthusiams around Shannon. Thanks for your effort and all the best!

A fascinating place - would love to see it develop.

My grandson said he spent the best day of his life at the museum. He had 30 solo minutes on the flight simulator.

Good luck - a great place that fully deserves the aviation community’s support

I hope to bring my two boys when they get older and to be inspired If it wasn't for this place providing easy access education with LIT in aviation, I wouldn't be where I am today. And I hope there is more courses to come in the future.

Visited a couple of years ago from Denmark. Jane gave me the full tour of the museum herself, and I spent much longer time here than I had planned for, but simply could not persuade myself to leave before I had heard all her fascinating stories and anecdotes. Had a very pleasant day in the company of a person as bitten by the aviation bug as myself! People as dedicated as Jane are rare these days, and a place like hers, which both works to preserve the aviation heritage and educate the youth, deserved every cent. Thanks Jane for all your efforts. I will be back some day to see how it all turns out!
