I should be able to retrieve a copy from the Newark Air Museum Archive; from memory it was a large file. If you can get me a postal address I’ll try and get a copy onto a CD for you.
That’s sad news, he was quite a character.
I was once in a meeting at the Petwood Hotel, when the meeting was disturbed by one of the receptionists coming in to tell me that there was someone in Reception who needed to see me urgently – when I got there it was Jim, who wanted to buy me a drink!!
Blue skies JIm.

The following information has been posted on the NAM website about Christmas Opening 2019
“Check out when we’re open & when we’re closed this holiday time …
First of all we would like to send out a big Happy Christmas message on behalf of all the volunteers, staff and trustees to all those people who have supported us throughout 2019; whether you are visitors, shoppers or event participants many thanks for your custom, good will and kind comments. It really is appreciated!
As per normal the museum closes at 4pm on Monday, December 23 BUT reopens again at 10am on Friday, December 27. All other days during the post-Christmas holiday period we’ll be open from 10am until 4pm, with last admissions to the museum at 3pm; last museum shop admission 3.40pm. Don’t forget that there’s lots to see inside so don’t let any poor weather forecasts stop you from visiting.
Before Christmas we hope that some of you might call in for those last minute presents, whilst after Christmas you’ll be desperate to spend that money you’ve been given. Don’t forget that we’ll also be closed on Wednesday, January 1, but open again on Thursday, January 2.
Some good news for the early part of 2020 we will be holding our ticket prices at their current rate.
As ever for those of you who can consider the Gift Aided admission, please do so as it makes a huge impact on our income from the tax that we are able to claim back from HMRC.
During the period after Christmas the café will be operating as normal and is an ideal stop off point to warm up and recharge the fuel tanks before continuing to look around the museum.
Christmas Shoppers Beware
If by any chance the weather turns wintery and there are no visitors in the museum after 3pm, the museum may close early to allow the staff to get home during daylight. So as not to be disappointed by the museum being closed, please don’t leave your shopping trip until late afternoon!”
