The scheme aims to pay tribute to the remarkable achievements of Sir Frank Whittle, a Coventry-born inventor and jet pioneer. Spearheaded by the dedicated team at the Coventry Midland Air Museum, this first phase involves constructing a magnificent 10,000 square foot building that will be known as the Frank Whittle Jet Heritage Centre.
