The Helicopter Museum preserves its collections
"in perpetuity" – not just for now, but forever.

The Helicopter Museum has three main objectives when working on the helicopters in
the collection:

To retain the aircraft’s originality and authenticity.
To save the aircraft for future years.
To prepare the aircraft for exhibition

Conservation work on the aircraft is carried out entirely by volunteers in their spare time. The work is rewarding and the museum undertakes to provide small and large projects to fit in with the needs of the volunteers.

A number of conservation projects are currently in progress including the Bristol Belvedere, with new projects being planned all the time.
