Great Experience
Located just 20 mins drive north of Newcastle, adjacent to the entrance to RAAF Base Williamtown at Newcastle Airport, Fighter World is a totally ‘hands on’ experience. Exhibited in two hangars, visitors can walk-around and look into the cockpits of some of the Air Forces most iconic aircraft such as the first jet aircraft built in Australia, the amazing F/A-18A Hornet and the mighty F-111C. Conveniently located adjacent to the main hangar, the Fighter Beans Cafe offers a range of snacks and light meals as well as cold beverages and steaming hot espresso coffee and of course there's free WiFi. Stay cosy inside or venture outdoors to enjoy the noise and action of an operational Air Force Base. The choice is yours. Make sure before you leave you visit the Fighter World Shop where you’ll find a wide range of books, souvenirs and models available. Fighter World is disable friendly and open every day (except Christmas Day) 10am to 4pm.

Fantastic
Popped in here while staying in Tea Gardens. Well worth the visit. My four Grandchildren were amazed, especially the two boys aged 11 and 12. Well presented displays, clean and well kept. You can feel the love from those who have obviously worked tirelessly to set this display up for everyone to enjoy. Well worth the money....

Great exhibition and displays
Visited on wet day with a toddler who loved seeing all the big planes and climbing up the stairs to view the cockpits. Great selection of historical aircraft and interesting information boards about the displays. Viewing platform over the airport to view planes a bonus. Cafe next door had good coffee. Gift shop was reasonably priced.
