The Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace is located in the south-eastern edge of the Le Bourget Airport, 10 km north of Paris. Occupying over 150,000 square metres of land and hangars, the Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace is one of the oldest aviation museums in the world.

Their collection includes more than 150 aircrafts and a wide range of aviation paraphanalia from as far back as the 16th century. The Ballooning Era room is fascinating, as are all the modern air and spacecrafts, including the prototype for the Concorde and a number of Swiss and Russian rockets.

The Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace occupies a vast space. It is fascinating simply to walk around and soak in the amosphere.

This museum is a must for anyone interested in aircraft and the evolution of human flight. There is a utilitarian beauty and a fascinating history to every object on display; each is the work of sweat and struggle. Each aircraft has a story to tell and it is this that makes the Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace so diverting.
