Orion Open Days

We will be opening our historic No.3 hangar for four days in April for the first public viewing of our latest addition – our beautiful Lockheed P-3K2 Orion.

The Orion will be on display from April 18-21 – free entry but donations welcome!

The public viewings will coincide with the launch of our new exhibition and short film Orion: The Story of an Extraordinary Aircraft in our Caldwell Gallery.

NZ4203 has been reassembled after its epic trip from RNZAF Base Woodbourne last year and you’ll get a chance to go out to the hangar and view it up close over four days, including the weekend, during museum hours.
