    Duxford Monday 31st December

    It has been quiet at Duxford over Christmas.
    In fact, it would be polite for Hangar 3 visitors to tiptoe…

    Happy New Year to all.

    Warbird activity is always welcome during the winter, so it was a pleasure to see the Shark airborne again today:

    The new IWM site transport has some (so far incomplete) branding. Perhaps someone could suggest names for the two vehicles ??
