Duxford Thursday 19th January.
Nothing really ‘Historic’ today but 4 visiting Helicopters which called in for fuel provided some entertainment for visitors to the museum.

One of Duxfords long time residents T.28 N14113 was airborne lunchtime today, possibly doing its last practice display at Duxford.. It departed mid afternoon initially for Jersey and thence onwards apparently to new owners in Europe.

Was the last time she was parked in this area at DX when she arrived back in 1975 ?
