Collection of World War I planes lovingly restored and captured in realistic settings. Part of the attraction is the association of Peter Jackson of Lord of the Rings fame and weta workshop with the display. His team has turned what could be just a collection of planes into a drama which those with no interest in aviation or military history can enjoy. Worth it.
