At London Colney, the de Havilland Aircraft Museum is the oldest aviation museum in the UK. It has a collection of more than 20 civil and military, jet and piston engine aircraft which were designed and built at de Havilland’s factory in Hatfield over nearly 70 years. The volunteer-run aviation museum collection is based around the definitive prototype and restoration shops for the de Havilland Mosquito.
