The museum
The Western Australian RAAF Association developed its aviation heritage collection around the contribution of aircrew from Western Australia. Its exhibits span British and Australian wartime bombers, training aircraft and more recent military aircraft in large enclosed galleries.

The aircraft collection concentrates on australian and British service aviation, maritime patrol, fighter training and Cold War strike aircraft. The museum offers indoor galleries that permit close inspection of a Lancaster bomber, with special tours arranged separately. Its catalog specifically identifies a replica Spitfire as well as an original Mk 22 aircraft; the two are separate objects.
The aircraft entries below are selected records from the institution’s own collection pages, not a claim to reproduce its entire inventory. A type shown in a museum catalog is not automatically available for inspection: restoration, loan, operational, and reserve storage arrangements can change. Where the catalog does not establish current public display, these records retain an unknown display status.
