National Aviation Museum of the Royal Thai Air Force

This place is full of plane and it history. No entry fees, super nice orientation. The indoor section was nicely arranged according to history of aviation of Thailand. Displays in both English and Thai. They even have a flight simulator for you to experience what it likes to be a pilot. The souvenir shop is selling cool stuff. Highly recommend for any age.

Quite a nice museum. There is a lot to look at and it is possible to touch many things or climb inside. Entrance is free and almost no tourists. Very good cafe with refreshments. I highly recommend a visit even with children.

One of the best museums I’ve been to in a while. Lots of interesting exhibits and some are rare. Free entry too. It’s worth visiting. Plan for 2-4 hours if you want to explore fully. Also right by the BTS station. So easy and cheap to get too. The station is named after the museum so also easy to find

It is well designed to give visitors a comprehensive timeline of the Royal Thai Air Force from the modest beginning in 1910s to a modern division of the army nowadays. It hosts a grand collection of aircrafts, many of which are scaled down for display purpose.

The museum also services the aviation library containing history books, archives, photos, and historical documents of aviation for research and study, preserving to be a legend of The Royal Thai Air Force.

Museum features alot of old and also rare authentic (majority of the displayed aircraft) fighters and royal thai airforce aircraft. It’s free to enter but know that during public holidays or monday the museum will be closed. It’s a wonderful place to come visit as also there is alot of public transportation nearby such as the skytrain and also bus services a few feet outside of the museum entrance.

As of currently there is renovation to some aircrafts and building and also there will most likely new aircrafts being added to the collection soon in the future until the museum either ran out of spaces or just moved/expand the musem to be even bigger!

I loved this museum! It’s free and there is so much to see both indoor and outdoor! A lot of explanation in English too. There is also a restaurant (near some tanks) and the food was delicious and cheap.

The museum is not well known to tourists but it is worthy of a 2 hours visit. Huge number of airplanes including helicopters outdoor and indoor. Most information are in Thai and English. The museum had 4 simulators with a mock cockpit. Getting there took about 1 hour on the Sukhumvit BTS green line. In terms of the number of aircraft on display, information and details, this museum is far better than the tiny Singapore Air Force museum. What is missing are videos.

You can learn a lot about Thailand's air force history and even get to see their first man made aeroplane. There are planes indoor and outdoor. The helicopter section is in a warehouse and the army tanks section is towards the back. You can climb into the cockpits of some of the planes and helicopters. Took a Bolt taxi here from DMK airport and it took around 20 minutes without highway. I've attached a map of the BTS sky train so that it'll be easier for anyone who wants to travel using public transport.

If you like vintage airplanes you will love this place, free to get in too, and easy to get to using the BTS network.

I had always wanted to visit and now the sky train has extended and it is really convenient to get there. There was no fee but I appreciate the effort and made a donation. I went on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't crowded. There are plenty of air craft displays indoors and out and you can get up close. Indoors highlighted the history of aviation as it related to Thailand. Great place to take the kids for a couple of hours.

It's an amazing aircraft museum, and it's free !!! About 100 aircraft collection, ranging from civilian plane, helicopter, and fighting jet. A must visit place for aviation lover. There're outdoor and indoor area (with air conditioner). You'll easily spend 2 hours here if you like airplanes.

Absolutely Stunning Display of Aircraft and Helicopters of all kinds throughout the Aviation History of Thailand and South East Asia
Virtual Reality Room also there, open to Public, which provides a unique experience
ENTRY IS FREE.....ABSOLUTELY RECOMMENDES...WORTH SPENDING 1.5 HOURS.....Good place to bring young kids

It's absolutely awesome for aviation fans. I am not a plane or helicopter person, but I enjoyed the museum very much. Entrance is free, but you can make a donation.
Highly recommend to plan at least a two hour stint to visit this museum.

Sensational aviation museum out near Don Muang Airport. Took about 1 hour to get there from Sukhumvit, via BTS, there is a dedicated Royal Thai Air Firce Museum Station.
More than 100 aircraft that have all served in Thai Air Force dating back to the 1930s. Any #avgeek will love this place and it is FREE.

One of the best Aviation Museums I’ve ever been to. So many planes to see, even helicopters! FREE! It’s a bit far out but worth the trip. Took the BTS there 35mins from Phrom Phong BTS, and walk 5-7mins. The canteen there serves delicious Thai Food, Drinks & Desserts. There’s also a souvenir shop there where we bought too many stuff. Definitely a must-visit if you’re into planes.

THE MAVELOUS PLACE THAT BEYOND WE THINK LIKE A COMMON MUSEUM, IT'S MUCH MORE SURPRISING AND INTERESTING VIBE ABOUT DISPLAY. IT'S SO NICE TO SPEND THE TIME FOR KIDS WITH AVIATION KNOWLEDGE AND THE HISTORY

Great place to hangout if you are an aviation enthusiast especially in military aircraft. Many historical aircraft to look around, they got VR Version of DCS (military flight simulator) for visitors to try it out. It's a great museum overall. They also have a airforce patch for sale in the souvenir shop too. It's free entry and quite easy to come. Definitely recommended

My second time going today, never gets old. Lots of aircraft you can get up close to, some even let's you sit in the cockpit. On some days, there are VR stations open where you sit in a remodeled cockpit and fly fighter jets. Free entrance. Also met some retired US navy pilots and commercial pilots there.

An aviation museum publicly open to visit. Kids enjoy riding on a pilot seat and climbing up various kinds of helicopters and airplanes.

There is a good truck selling drinks and also Tao Bin (drink vending machine) in the main building.

Toilets are outside and clean.

A bit further distance from BTS aviation museum station they have quite some parking lot so if not a festive holiday better drive

Wow, came here not expecting much. But what an amazing find, it's a great place to spend a few hours looking at the many planes and helicopters. It's 3mins from the BTS and has refreshments and food onsite at very cheap prices. Another advantage is its the same price for Thai's and Farangs....FREE. It's only 47 Baht on the BTS to visit, so the place should be overrun with tourists, but it's hardly known, so definitely worth a visit

Amazing place for the lovers of aviation and people interested in history as well. There are a lot of planes, helicopters, weapons and many other things to see. This museum is not well known by foreign tourists, in fact- it was almost empty, while I was here... So if you wanna experience something new and unknown in Bangkok, it's definitely worth it. You can very easily get there by taking BTS Admission is free!
