Hopeful to attend and renew our museum membership.

COCKPITS NORTH & MODEL SHOW WEEKEND
SATURDAY & SUNDAY MAY 13TH AND 14TH
For this event we welcome a number of mobile aircraft cockpits, some owned by fellow museums and some by private individuals. This allows visitors to see and even sit inside a number of aircraft not normally available at the museum. We also have a few of our own aircraft cockpits available for inspection as well. In addition we will also run a new Model Show, inviting local modellers especially to show off their talents.

Lovely to meet you too, FarlamAirframes.
It really was a great day. Thanks and well done to the museum for arranging the event and to all the exhibitors who turned up. There was an interesting variety of cockpits and projects to see some of which were totally new to me – the Airspeed Oxford Restoration Project and Hangar 1914 Sopwith Tabloid replica project.
The Cheetah engine sounded amazing! Interesting to see the Anson Mk.1 alongside it too.
Hope the event goes well again today. It’s well worth a visit.
