    Excellent moment passé dans ce musée de l'aviation. Le prix (3€/personne) est vraiment dérisoire par rapport à la qualité de l'exposition. L'ensemble des personnes faisant tourner le musée sont bénévoles, ce qui est vraiment impressionnant. Le personnel est très agréable et a su être présent pour répondre à nos questions et nous apporter des précisions. Merci à vous et bon courage pour la suite.

    (Translated by Google) Super nice museum close Saturday afternoon and Sunday but a great exhibition outside the museum my son loved to contemplate these life-size. We will come back to see what is more in the museum for sure. Beautiful tribute to the firefighter also with a magnificent statue to see in my photos. If you liked my opinion, do not hesitate to subscribe to my profile and put a like to see more opinion or photo of our visit thank you in advance 😊😉 (Original) Super jolie musée fermer samedi après midi et dimanche mais une super expo en dehors du musée mon fils a adoré comtempler ces grandeur nature.

Si mon avis vous a plu hésitez pas à vous abonnez à mon profil et mettre un j'aime pour voir plus d'avis ou photo de nos visite merci par avance 😊😉

    I was so glad I had time to stop in and tour this excellent museum. So many different types of aircraft from the past 100+ years of aviation. Many full size jets, planes, war birds, helicopters, and even a lot of aviation type fire fighting vehicles outside. They have one large room with hundreds of model aircraft, large and small. And many mannequins with uniforms of various airlines and military types. I spent about an hour there and could have stayed longer.

    The aviation museum is located not far from the Marignane airport and Airbus factory in the picturesque village of Saint-Victoret. It displays one of the most unique helicopter collections in the world. Various models, planes and helicopters (among which the one and only Eurocopter X3). I highly recommend visiting the museum whenever you have the chance; especially for the aviation enthusiast like myself.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful Museum. We were unlucky the reception was poor. However, the Museum is well worth the trip. Aside from the welcome, the staff are friendly. To have :-) (Original) Beau Musée. Nous n’avons pas eu de chance l’accueil était minable. Cependant, le Musée en vaut le déplacement. A part l’accueil, le personnel est sympathique. A voir :-)

    I invites you to discover the fascinating world of aeronautics and visit the Aviation museum in St Victoret. Located in the center of this middle town of Marignane,no Bonne Mère here, no Sainte-Victoire, no beach but an Aviation museum to discover absolutely! First of all, Municipal Aviation Museum of St Victoret opened in 2004, renovated and recently enlarged , it's especially animated by a team of about thirty voluntary, including former aviation professionals (former pilots, technicians of Airbus) who keep improving and enriching an unique collection in France. They comment all the visits, whether alone or in a group, and they are absolutely interesting. In the large exhibition hall of this splendid bright hangar you will be able to admire about thirty flying objects , old and recent, from parachute, to paragliding and glider, to helicopters and combat aircrafts including Mirage III used at the end of the 60s as flight simulator as part of the Concorde program. Children can enter in the cabin of a fire fighting plane. Also, for the tech-savvy, engines and other turbines, reactors and on-board instruments to life-size dummies in aeronautics outfit through the ages. Finally a screening room where you will seat in real Boeing 777 seat of Air France company to view films. And to finish, upstairs, an unique collection of more than 5,000 models, a jewel of collectors which many museums would like to obtain. This museum shined children and adults eyes! The effect is guaranteed!

  • 4/5 Xavier L. 6 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very nice and welcoming museum. Volunteers on site share their passion. Museum open in the morning from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. You have the choice between a guided tour (departure at 9 a.m., 10 a.m. and 11 a.m.) or a self-guided tour. Allow between 30 minutes to an hour for the visit. The price is € 3 for anyone over 6 years old. Parking is free. I do not put 5 stars for the following reasons: it misses a flight simulator, a wind tunnel for free fall and recent devices. (Original) Très beau musée très accueillant. Des bénévoles sur place partagent leur passion. Musée ouvert au matin de 9h à 12h. Vous avez le choix entre une visite guidée (départ à 9h, 10h et 11h) ou une visite libre. Comptez entre 30 minutes à une heure pour la visite. Le prix est de 3€ pour toute personne de plus de 6 ans. Le parking est gratuit. Je ne mets pas 5 étoiles pour les raisons suivantes : il manque un simulateur de vol, une soufflerie pour la chute libre et des appareils récents.

    (Translated by Google) We (group of 20 people) visited the museum in 2 hours with a very friendly gentleman (Michel if I'm not mistaken) as a guide, a former Airbus Helicopters pilot who officiated at a time when the company was not yet named . The visit took place without our having seen the time passing. Indeed our guide alternating explanations and anecdotes with great enthusiasm Many thanks to Michel. So we highly recommend and we will not fail to return as soon as the opportunity arises.
