Go east a bit…

You can also find a bunch of Hillman Huskies in a field in Essex!! 🙂 (Thanks to Pete Truman for this tip!).

Have a look around Wichita, Kansas and see if you can see a B-52 parked between the old municpal airfield and the Boeing works. This belongs to the Wichita Aviation Museum. (B-52s must count as Historic?) I don’t know if they are suppressed by being on an active base, but there are some historic types scattered around on external view at McConnell AFB (also in Wichita) which forms the Kansas Air Guard Museum.

Funnily enough I’m in Wichita as I type. Broadband connections in the most modest hotels are a real boon!
