Lovely photos. Thanks for posting.
The most important thing is that it will be back in the air. We may not all agree on colours but surely we can all agree with that 🙂
Wow – very impressive!
Wasn’t aware of this. Must keep an eye out for it coming around again on tv. An incredible story.
Fantastic! You are doing a great job there.

Yes, it’s either that or the An-12 9L-LCR. Whichever it is – what a fantastic plaything!

Health and Safety people would have a heart attack!
As a matter of interest what type is this young man sitting in? –

That’s really good news 🙂
Weight is lent to the deduction from mentions, on the internet, that the SO.30 with the Musée de l’Air is the last surviving specimen.
Wasn’t the Bretagne with the Musee de l’Air destroyed in the fire of 1990 or have they obtained another since?
I believe it was Birmingham Museum of Science Mk IV KX829.
Slight asid. e Some photos of the Strathallan Ansons.
At least most of them found homes again with other museums. Thanks for posting the photos.
