Just a few pictures from Duxford Museum,

It is an amazing museum. I just wish they had more room for the aircraft as it always seems too closely packed.

Very true,the conservation hanger seems to have a lot going on at the moment.

Wow, what an amazing selection of aircraft! Nice photos too. Thanks for posting.

Beautiful collection of aircraft. Thanks for the pictures.

Thank you all.

A few more pictures from the American Air Museum and the conservation hanger.












This B-17 has just been restored,it used to be in the colours of Mary Alice,it has yet to have any squadron or individual markings added.

A V2 under restoration.





A Spanish He-111 being restored.

This is the wreckage of a Me-110 Rudolf Hess flew to Britain in 1941 on a secret peace mission.

I think this is a Heinkel He-162 jet.

Nice pics Nick
Anyone know what that 'lump' is under the P47's wing?

Thanks Chucky,the lump under the P47 wing is a weapons pylon I believe.

Some more pictures from the flying aircraft hanger,most of them from The Fighter collection,can't take credit for these photos as my Daughter took them!

Nice stuff. Good to see that they finished up the B-17 - last time I was at Dux it was lying on the floor in one of the restoration hangars with the wings off.

Is the Ju-52 just visiting? I don't remember that ever being there before.

Cheers Gopher,The Ju-52,was the one in the conservation hanger last year,I've heard that its going on display in a museum in Warsaw.Yes it is good to see the B-17 back on display,I would like to know what plane it is going to represent though?

God I have to get there someday.

Try and go on an air show day Jason. Busy but you will love it.
And there is a great tank museum right next to it.

You could always write it off as a research trip for Battle over Stalingrad.

Nice pics, thanks

Cheers

Thank you.

Just a few more pictures I found,these are from the Land Warfare Museum,not from the same visit but from last year,they're not the best quality,I think I took them with my phone? but you get the idea of what's there. It is a huge part of the Museum though.

Nice.
Are those last 4 Australian tanks?

Thanks Chucky,I'm embarrassed to say I don't know,I always seem to get rushed around Land Warfare,next time I go I will start there I think, as it really is a great part of the museum.

What I meant was the last 4 pics are upside-down?

Good stuff even though it hurt my neck to view them

see what you mean,uploaded from my mobile looked ok on there.cant understand why the last but one is reversed got to stop drinking or drink more!
