Vintage Duxford

I am starting to go thru and slim my aircraft photo collection. It seemed to me that maybe some might like older shots from Duxford? If only to remember old days and old friends.
Seems a pity to dilute the excellent current Dux thread(s).
I thought I might start the ball rolling with shots of Duxford/TFC’s connection with the beautiful P63/P39. These phots show the beautiful first P63 (circa 1988) in its Russian markings. The second P63 (circa 2000) and then my favourite the P39 (circa 2004). The P63/P40 formation duo (Steve Jones and Guy Bancroft-Wilson IIRC) was awesome.

Great stuff. It’s always surprises me how many warbirds have passed through Duxford in the hands of the various collectors. More please.
