Where to volunteer

Hi guys
I am finally leaving Cornwall after 25 years for pastures new in the Yeovil. I have been an aircraft engineer for 25 years mainly electrical although for the past few years I have been instructing avionics. I would love to volunteer to help at a museum on the restoration side, I would think that the FAA museum would be my best bet but I don’t know who to contact, the web just mentions guides, also does anybody know of any other collections in the area? I will be living in the Bridport area Thanks in advance for any info.

Tony

I would think the FAAM are your best bet, they do have volunteers working on the aircraft restoration/maintenance side of things, and I would think a qualified engineer would be attractive.
Will send PM with a contact.
The Helicopter Museum at Weston maybe another option?
