People can expect to see artifacts that aren't yet on display

People are invited to head south to the Manx Aviation and Military Museum tomorrow (1 November) as it celebrates its 25th anniversary.

The museum, which is entirely independent and run by volunteers, holds thousands of exhibits - each with its own story.

Tomorrow, people can expect to see artifacts that haven't yet been on display, enter the preserved Manx Airlines ATP aeroplane and also see something Spitfire related.

Chanelle Sukhoo spoke to the museum's chair, Norman McGregor Edwards and director, Ivor Ramsden:

“It only seems like a couple of years ago since we opened the museum, and we’ve achieved an awful lot in that time, and we thought that the 25th anniversary is an appropriate time to say thank you to everybody who's supported us" Ivor Ramsden 

The museum will be open tomorrow from 10am until 4.30pm.
