The Mystere & F100 at the Lashenden Air Warfare Museum have NOT been part of the museum since 2007 having been returned to the National Museum of the USAF following the accident involving the F100 & Turbo Beaver OY-JRR. Neither aircraft was acquired by the museum having been loaned by other “preservation groups”. The F100 has been declared as unsafe following the accident which is why it is fenced off & untouched. The museum want them removed, the airfield owners want them removed & we are not allowed to dispose of them & the NMUSAF seem unwilling or unable to remove them!

The Lashenden Air Warfare Museum at Headcorn holds the inlet valve matrix from an Argus 109 014 pulse jet amongst parts from over 30 V1’s. They will be placed on display in the new display building later this year with the museum’s restored Reichenberg.

Hi Barry your pictures go back to the early 70’s & the early days of the museum. The tree gave up the gost many years ago the Pickett Hamilton Fort is on the site of the tree now. We still have all the bits of the V1 in store & they will be displayed with the Reichenberg in the new building.

The museum is looking to acquire photographs of the Reichenberg at Farnborough, the Joint Services Bomb Disposal School at Horsham or at Fort Clarence Rochester.

If you have any photographs of the Reichenberg the museum would be very pleased to receive copies.

The Reichenberg in the background is a Wasserlaufer version for use against ships and is fitted with a 38cm Granate warhead. It was built at the Henschel factory at Berlin-Schoenfield with the production number 27. It was recovered from Tschechien by a private collector and is 75% original. It is for sale for about 1 million Euros!

There was a article in the other magazine’s June 2012 issue covering the restoration of this Reichenberg, details can also be found at:-

Headcorn will not be subject to Olympic Airspace Restrictions from 14 July 2012 to 15 August 2012. We are within three nautical miles of the outer edge of the Restricted Zone and will have an exemption which means that we will be fully operational during the restricted period.
