A quick zip around the ‘Museo Aeronautico y del Espacio’.

Really interesting review. What is sad is that there are so many UK types (Meteor, Canberra, Jet Provost, 748, Jaguar) that we could sell back in the day. Still I suppose there are some Airbuses in Ecuador which are at least part UK built.

What a great mix of types! Thanks for sharing, Mark12.

Lovely photos! Thanks for posting them 🙂 Love the Stinson and nice to see the Catalina with nose turret.

Great shots Mark12, what no Spit LOL. Lovely Stinson inside, B-23 and Cat look in great condition, DC-6 makes me drool!

I think it’s more accurate to call it the UC-67.

Never seen a B-23 before – many thanks for sharing these photos 🙂

Great! Thanks for sharing!

Great photos from an exotic location, thank you !

Isn’t that the only other surviving Meteor FR9 (other than Newark’s)? Nice to see it still alive.
Also, a B-23! That was unexpected!
Great photos, thanks for sharing 🙂

There are six FR.9 in Ecuador and 2 in Israel

Thanks Mark. Museum staff: Enthusiasm and limited resources span the globe.

Unusual canopy on the Meteor!
