….that’s a hell of a lot of effort to go to just to photograph a Noddy train!! :diablo:

Fantastic Photos everyone! A BIG thanks you to Duxford volunteers etc etc that made this possible!

Crickey, what a large step ladder.

And I hate to think about the size of his windbreak and coolbox 😀

Hardly a tomb, more like a cocoon.
It is great to see & photograph these planes outside, on a sunny day, but they will be much better off inside.

It’s a tomb. Also, I hope they clean the dust off them more often than they have been over the last few years.

That would be nice, however, the “Tomb” beckons these treasures. Never to see the light of day again.

OK ok so I let my enthusiasm get the better of me but a Bomber Command night/evening a Duxford would be a great idea. Airfields at dusk have an extraordinary atmosphere.

Absolutely fantastic, and a superb day to boot…

Excellent work, Brian!

Fantastic stuff!
Imagine if we could see an airshow at Duxford with both the Static And airworthy examples of airframes side by side= BBMF Lancaster and IWM’s example next to each other would be an amazing sight!. In fact never mind an airshow how about an evening where we get to see a line up of types from the IWM collection and private examples. Themed evenings with Costumed extras. How about a Bomber Command evening=Lancaster, Mosquito maybe the Real aeroplane Co’s Night fighter Hurricane.,ending with sun set flypast. We could have a Jet themed Evening telling the story of it’s development using both static examples from Duxford’s collection and today’s airworthy airframes to show the jets genesis. Endless combinations of airframes with an educational slant.
