Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre
Review
The Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre is a privately owned and run Museum and was set up by two farming brothers, Fred and Harold Panton. It has been built up as a memorial to Bomber Command and primarily as a tribute to their eldest brother Christopher Witton Panton, who was shot down and killed on a bombing raid over Nuremberg on 30/31 March 1944. The Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre was then opened in 1988 and has hosted visits from many veterans, their families as well as many famous people both from the aviation and show-biz worlds. The Museum is extremely proud of the accomplishments of the Centre, one of the biggest independent museums receiving no funding or Lottery grants. With many exciting events happening throughout the year, they can only hope that they will be able to continue to educate the following generations to the sacrifices and roles of Bomber Command.
