As Melvyn says, the National War Museum in Valetta is very interesting, with Faith on display there (minus wings, of course). You can’t go to Malta without visiting the Malta Air Museum at Ta Qali which is a superb wee museum.

Another, slightly more off-beat, place to visit is the 200 foot long sound mirror at Maghtab. It’s in very good condition and still has visible traces of camouflage paint. A fascinating survival and here’s what it looks like:

Don’t take the dog, there are not many trees . . . .

The museum in Valetta is, apparently, worth the trip.
