I think we shall be making our first visit to Elvington today.
We are off to stay with wife’s niece in York, so will set of a couple of hours earlier than planned.
Will give my impressions when we get back.
Well we got to the YAM at Elvington on Thursday afternoon, our first visit. Well worth a look, and I had no idea of it’s history.
We only had a couple of hours, and would have liked to have spent more time there, but they were waiting to close up.
Lot’s to see, with plenty of aircraft on display outside. Some looking a bit sorry for themselves unfortunately. That is just an
observation, not a criticism. Any museum staffed largely be volunteers, can only do so much.
Couldn’t get to see the Halifax unfortunately as it was parked at the back of the hangar, and they were busy clearing away
after some sort of exhibition laid on for students and school kids. No doubt connected with armed forces week ?
Nice museum with some good displays, so must get back for a longer look. It’s very handy though, only being 10mins away
from my wife’s niece.
