Fighter World

Galleries, Museums and Collections

Located at Newcastle Airport, Fighter World is a hands-on experience. Visitors can walk around, touch and view some of Australia’s most iconic military aircraft plus enjoy the added benefit of sitting in the cockpits of a Mirage jet fighter, Macchi jet trainer and a CT-4B basic training aircraft.

There are many historic aircraft, replicas and weapons on display.

Inside the main hangar, you’ll also discover the Norm Forrester Collection; one of Australia’s greatest displays of hand-built model aircraft.

State of the art Flight Simulators provide the chance to test your ‘Top Gun’ skills and must be booked separately.

In addition, step up to the Observation Deck where you can view some of the world’s most advanced aircraft take-off and land and on your way out don’t forget to stop at the souvenir shop for something truly unique.

After your adventure, enjoy the warm welcome, great food and friendly atmosphere of the Fighter Beans Café before you depart.

Fighter World is an accessible and inclusive venue.
