From memory, it took us about twenty minutes to drive into the city centre (we were staying outside the city and made this our first stop on the way in).

For an aviation enthusiast (or perhaps a former member of the RAF), I would say this is a 'must do' museum to visit, so I hope that you are able to make it.
