The Historical Aircraft Restoration Society (HARS) is based at Wollongong Airport. HARS was formed in 1979 by a group of aviation enthusiasts interested in the preservation of Australian Aviation History. Its mission is “To recover and where possible restore to flying condition, aircraft or types of aircraft that have played a significant part in Australian Aviation History both in the Civil and Military arenas”. Actor John Travolta donated his ex-Qantas Boeing 707 to the group in 2017.

They also have started running regular Engine Run days where visitors can actually see the aircraft operating.
