If anyone finds themselves in the West of ireland, I strongly recommend the Flying Boat Museum in Foynes, across the estuary from Shannon Airport. This was the first port of call / refueling stop for Transatlantic Clipper flights (and also where the Irish Coffee was invented to warm incoming passengers deplaning off a long flight in an unpressurized cabin).
They have a replica Boeing 314 which you are free to walk around. It's fascinating to see the cabin out from seating to sleeping areas.
