It has a collection of around 70 aircraft from the period 1911 until 2000. Around 60 aircraft are on display. The collection includes gliders, fighter planes and helicopters. Many are still airworthy.[2][3]

The collection is considered part of Denmark's Air Force Museum as it hosts the collection of the Royal Danish Air Force.[4]
