Three scanned 35mm slides from me.

Firstly, two from Duxford, taken in April 1975, before the museum was open. I was 12 years old at the time and my dad had to apply in writing to visit and on acceptance, you were given a guided tour.

Sally B having her nose art applied (note only ‘S’ and ‘a’ done so far!)

A Liberator. I think this was an ex Indian AF example which was ferrying to the US and had engine trouble. Note the lack of prop.

A year earlier and a short journey to Cranfield and this appeared, the RS Desford.

I hope these are of interest

Nice to see the Raspberry Ripple Javelin in the background on the B24 shot

Nice, but I’m fairly sure that’s a 320, not a 321

I checked on this when I first took the photo and have re checked an it appears the Scandinavian fleet operate the 321

It’s a bit difficult to make much comment because the file sizes are so small. What lens were you using on the D50, and have you cropped them in at all?
Pity the weather wasn’t a bit better: mid-afternoon in the autumn on a sunny day and the lighting angles are pretty good from the spec where you obviously were.

Lens size was 70-300mm i havent cropped just reduced pixel size to upload but agree on the weather but with all weather what you see is what you got

Nice, and hello.
May I request you add them as 500 pixels wide? Saves clicking each and every one.
