Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th April, 10am to 5pm, at the museum, at the corner of First Street and Second Avenue, Moorabbin Airport, Melways 87 G 4

Held each Autumn, Wings & Wheels is the museum’s special annual event that celebrates the many links between aviation and automobiles. In this context, names like Rolls-Royce, Daimler-Benz and Bristol quickly come to mind, and there are many others with similar connections such as Renault, Fiat and Hispano-Suiza. Even Australia ’s very own Holden has had strong ties with aviation as GMH was heavily involved in the output of aircraft engines and components during World War Two. This is the basic premise of Wings &Wheels, but it covers a much wider field of the world of fine automobiles and related machinery.

Admittances (applicable to this weekend only): Adults $10; children, pensioners and students $5; Family $20.

Parking No problem at all; no meters, no time limits and no more than about 100 metres from the front entrance.

Disabled access There are no steps at all on the museum premises, only a few shallow ramps.

Refreshments Light refreshments, hot coffee and tea with biscuits or cake, cold drinks and confectionery are available.
