Excellent capture! Was this taken at Duxford at the end of May?
Great shots! Thank you for sharing…
Coventry has a fantastic museum and the Cathedral is stunning
I totally agree! Including Avro Shackleton WR963 which I am planning to go and visit asap early next year.
Yeah I can’t think of anything better :).
This made me laugh too…

A very interesting read, and very scary by the sound of it. No problem, happy to help and/ or be tested.
This link gives some information…

Thank you to everyone at MeierMotors for all the hard work and dedication you have all put in, keeping the beautiful and historical aircraft flying. Thank you for all the updates and it was great to see the team at Legends earlier this year.
Have a wonderful Christmas all at MeierMotors!
Great captures! Tough to pick a favourite, but at first glance the shots of Snafu and MH434 stand out. Wonderful work, love them all.
Great night shots! She is looking good with all the hard work you have all put in. Thanks for sharing and all the updates.
Great shots! Thank you for sharing.
As mentioned by Tim (Consul) in an earlier post, I found this advert…
MORLEY AVIATION LIMITED (Herts & Essex Aero Club 1958). Aerodrome — Stapleford.M.O.A. approved private pilots’ course. Auster, Gemini and Tiger aircraft. Trial lesson 35/-. 15 miles centre of London. Central Line Underground to Theydon Bois, bus 250 to Club. Open every day.Tel : Stapleford 275.
Trial lessons would add a few extra flying hours. Not sure if this helps…
Not sure where I would set up the museum. Maybe Biggin Hill, but hangar renting is expensive at Biggin, fuel is good price compared to other places. What I would have is something like this:
Beech 18/C-45
4 x T-6 Texan’s/Harvard’s (to form a new Harvard display team)
de Havilland DH.104 Dove
DC-3/C-47
Piper L-4 and a Piper NE-1
And two Spitfires, one Mk9 and one ‘low back canopy’ Mk16
and a Antonov An2
I would also get involved with bringing a Mosquito to the UK and airworthy, and helping the Avro Shackleton WR963 Project up at Coventry to return to flight.
Great captures! Fantastic shot of P9374. Beautiful shots of the Lanc and Vulcan etc. Thanks for sharing…
Great shots, much missed aircraft from air show line-ups. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the update rich, that’s great news.
Been missing this sight and sound for far too long in the sky over the UK…
