Hi, not posted in a wee while but I’ve returned with a few pictures from the ‘archives’ (shoebox). Here are a selection of pictures from a visit in 2002 to the museum in Bodø, Norway which was made as part of longer trip by train around Europe. Ive also got some from the Swiss transport museum lying about which I shall post if anyone is interested.
No identification of the aircraft as im sure you all know what they are! Beautiful museum, split into two halves, military and civil with a observation tower at the centre to view the local airfield.

Being a Norwegian I thought I’d say a few things on the display.
– The Mossie is a T.III built up to resemble a Fb.VI as when used at Banff 1945. The scheme is quite correct though the flag and stripe proportions are a little bit off.
– The Ju 88 is a KG30 A4 if I’m not much mistaken displayed as it was found on the high planes of Northeast Norway. There has also been a C-4 and a D-1 at the museum, but these planes have been sent to Hungary for two restauration projects.
– The Ju-52 is an ex-portuguese machine which was rebuilt throughout the nineties along with a second plane that was returned to Portugal when complete.
Regards,
Kyrre

Are there any other JU52 aircraft on floats? A particulalrly interesting diorama I feel.

And it’s always nice to notice a Gladiator in the inventory. 😎
Thanks for posting.

I do like that Mossie scheme.

I believe it’s a Ju88C
