The City of Norwich Aviation Museum is looking for a pro-active volunteer to assist with our aircraft maintenance and restoration projects.
Our volunteers have a wide range of skillsets, so an aircraft-related background is not required. Tasks include regular washing of the exterior, sheet metalwork, treatment of corrosion, painting, work with electrical/hydraulic systems.
Current restoration projects requiring volunteers:
- Restoration of our 'fighter line' - Meteor, T33, Hunter
- Repainting our Handley Page Herald airliner
- Continued upkeep of our largest exhibits - Nimrod, Vulcan, Avro RJ
Volunteers will join a team led by a 'Crew Chief' responsible for that aircraft. The museum will provide appropriate PPE such as gloves and safety glasses.
All volunteers are required to submit a membership application form directly to the museum and pay a small charge of £15 per year to cover insurance and other costs. In return, Volunteers are invited to take part in Annual meetings, group visits and a range of discounts including a discount of 15% in our on site shop.
