Here’s the link to my pictures that I posted on WIX a week or so back. Doesn’t look like much has changed over the years.

Nice Pics APC104. Thanks. I didn’t know they had Internet Cafes in Ecuador!

M-Bob – Caramba! Is that B-23/Whatever still there? APC – seen it?

A few more.

You´ll see what I mean´t in my last post about the sad state of the aircraft. The Canberra is a prime example….

I´ll try and post some more images asap… I´m at the mercy of Ecuador´s internet cafe at the moment!

As Ecuador´s primary aviation museum, I arrived with high expectations, but left feeling sorry for the place. The aircraft are wedged into a spaces between concrete walls and car parks, photography is difficult, and several airframes have had their engines and all avionics removed.. notably the Canberra and Meteor.

Makes you realise how proud we in the UK can be of the likes of Hendon, Duxford, etc, and the amount of public money which goes to supporting our interests!
