Hi Mikael,
I visited the museum a few years ago (1996ish), just after I believe, that it was announced that the museum was due to be closed.
The museum itself was not huge, with the space where the aircraft were, not being very well lit but overall was very interesting.
There were a lot of artifacts from digs and IIRC mainly from Luftwaffe wrecks. It was a shame that it had to close and I seem to remember there were notices up, looking for people/organisations interested in taken the exhibits on.
From memory, the '102 was a replica but could not say, with any certainty.
