\"Attractions<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

One of the great attractions in Caboolture<\/a> is the War Plane Museum. Situated on the Perimeter of Caboolture Airfield we house historical artifacts and classic flight-ready aircraft from Australia’s aviation past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our SNJ-4<\/a> and Mustang P51D<\/a> take pride of place. Lovingly restored and maintained they both offer adventure flights for a unique, thrilling and increasingly rare experience. Please note the Mustang is currently away on duties, we will advise when it returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
