Traditionsgemeinschaft Lufttransport Wunstorf most important exhibit is a Junkers Ju 52/3m g4e built in 1939, which was salvaged from the bottom of the Norwegian Hartvikvann lake near Narvik in 1986 by a team from the JU 52 interest group founded for this purpose. After restoration at Wunstorf airbase, it was set up in the hangar. The museum also contains a collection of exhibits focusing on military air transport. A video documentation in the museum shows the recovery of the aircraft and the air transport tasks of LTG 62.
LTG 62 and its community of tradition set up a traditional corner in the hall and exhibit some large objects on the open-air grounds next to the hall. Other objects are gifts and permanent loans from private individuals. Among the exhibits in the hall is a Dornier Do 28 D-2 (Skyservant), alternating with other large exhibits. The role of the Wunstorf airbase during the Berlin Airlift 1948/1949 is also discussed. On the outside area there is a Transall C-160D, a Nord Noratlas N2501, a Piaggio P.149 and two helicopters of the type Mil Mi-8 and Bell UH-1D.
