The Royal Air Force Museum is working to move over 50,000 historical pieces to its location in the English Midlands, where many of them will be displayed publicly for the first time.
Less than 1 percent of the museum’s vast collection is currently on display, with the rest kept tucked away at a secure but largely inaccessible Ministry of Defense site in Stafford. This remainder, described by museum officials as an “Aladdin’s cave” of treasures, includes aircraft, parts, ejector seats, military uniforms, medals, logbooks, and other memorabilia connected to one of the most storied air forces in history.
