The “Milestones of Flight” building is huge and along one wall is…
…a tmeline of Milestones of Flight. 
The hall itself is filled with “Milestone Aircraft”…
…like the Bleriot XI, one of the first dependable, reliable and versatile monoplanes at a time when many of its contemporaries were dangerous, difficult to control and unstable.
The aircraft shown is similar to the one that crossed the English Channel in 1909 and look closely – there is Louis Blériot!
Here is the Percival Mew Gull that won the Folkestone Aero Trophy in 1937. The Percival Mew Gull is to this day the class holder of the world record time between London – Cape Town – London.
Imagine sitting in this cockpit flying London – Cape Town – London!
Above is the beautiful Hawker Hart II. Although designed as a bomber it had a performance superior to any fighter aircraft then in existence.
The de Havilland Mosquito was made largely of wood and designed as an unarmed bomber, depending on its superior speed to escape enemy fighters.
The Messerschmitt Me262 was the only jet fighter to see air-to-air combat in World War Two.
The latest Milestone Aircraft in this hall is the Eurofighter Typhoon, thought to represent the future with its cutting edge technology.
