Other sporting events included the Graniteman Weekender triathlon and the three-day British Isles DanceSport Championships.
It was unveiled in a ceremony attended by Lord Lieutenant Lucy Winskell, past and present service men and women, and museum volunteers on Tuesday."It's an absolutely win for the museum and locality that we can show this aircraft to the public," said former RAF pilot Richard Pargeter.
He flew the Hawk T1 with the now-disbanded 100 Squadron, which was responsible for training fighters against potential enemies.The aircraft, which was capable of exceeding 550 knots (632mph), was built in 1979 and based at RAF Leeming in North Yorkshire.Its last flight took place in 2017 before it was placed into storage, where it faced being stripped for parts, until it was offered to museum bosses.
"It would have gone back as spares for the Reds [Red Arrows] for the foreseeable future," Mr Pargeter told the BBC."It means a huge amount, my love for this aircraft is undying, she's just a beautiful aircraft and I'm absolutely delighted."
The jet was disassembled before being transported by road, and reassembled at the Wearside museum over the weekend.
Museum chair David Charles said it was a "significant" moment for the museum, as it "really puts us on the map".Others who got through were shocked to find the price of standard tickets had more than doubled from £148 to £355 on Ticketmaster, due to "dynamic pricing" for the tour, which sees prices surge if demand is high.
The high prices many fans ended up paying pose a huge risk to the Gallagher brothers' reputation, as Oasis were seen as working class heroes in their 1990s heyday.Earlier this week, the European Commission announced it would be investigating dynamic pricing following the controversy.
The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) also received 450 complaints about Ticketmaster adverts for the Oasis gigs.A spokesman for the UK's regulator of advertising said the complainants argue the adverts made "misleading claims about availability and pricing".
