Yes Keith on November 6th the Harvard was the ‘most recent arrival’.
Good to have an all ‘too brief chat’ on Saturday John – if you could call it such! ๐ฎ
Thanks for the positive comments.
Welcome – if you use the search function on here with the phrase Staravia, you should be kept occupied for an hour or so! ๐
Newark has a Phantom procedures trainer with reasonably complete front and rear cockpits, which you can just about make out on the top section of this webpage http://www.newarkairmuseum.org/contact_us.html
PM me if you’d like to try and set up a visit or see more pictures.
Nice to see such a refreshing approach with regard to photograph fees! ๐
Normal service is resumed โ Museum Shop Update now added! ๐
I have strong personal attachments to TwinOtter23, with good reasons for its choice โ but โPlugmeisterโ is fine as a nickname and one that I will proudly wear as a badge of honour! ๐
He taught me too! ๐ ….
:confused: I think I might be being bullied!?!
If you make it along you might be able to see the latest arrival! ๐
He taught me all I know…..:D
๐ Hey thatโs meant to be my line! ๐
That’s a nice ‘underside glow’ on XM594 Keith, perhaps aided by the reflection off the Exhibition Hall roof! ๐
There are some old ones like this just outside Waddington turned into a Ford workshop
Not sure how many are still left at Bracebridge Heath, but you can see an aerial view of the site on page 9 of the North Kesteven Airfield Trail brochure; you can download it in PDF format from here! ๐
No problem with any Aeroboot feedback / information โ just one slight correction re the date of NAMโs next event, which is on Saturday 12th March 2011.
One aspect of NAMโs Aeroboots is that each time they tend to bring a small selection of new items onto the market. This is because not all of the stallholders are traders, groups or serious collectors and each time it tends to attract a few new sellers from amongst the museumโs membership and from around the local area.
As for the data plate display sfp54 โ if you PM me an email address Iโll send you a photo; Iโm out of space on here and I donโt have a photo hosting account!
What a service โ thanks for that, Iโve forwarded the details on to the Curator.
Shame about the Bf 110 wreckage โ I think the last lot we had went from the NAM scrap compound a couple of Cockpit-Festโs ago! :diablo:
Only joking about the wreckage!! ๐
At least two of the Macaw’s original JP’s cockpits survive. I think one was at Cockpit Fest this year and the other resides near Chester..
I believe that Steve Austinโs T4, XP558 was last shown at the 2009 Cockpit-Fest event; there are some pictures here http://www.cockpitfest.co.uk/ follow the previous event link and the picture is on page 2. ๐
….to read the Werke Nummer on the MIAG plate in the little frame of displayed data plates from a Me110..
I was over at Newark today to host a school visit and during our tour round the Exhibition Hall I think that I noticed the data plates that you mentioned. There were 4 in total but only two had any readable information on them.
MIAG
LIZ Bf 110 C-1
2(?) 0603 3563
110-15-38
RE4
03365-39
F1 28019
:confused: Not being into aircraft data plates does this mean that NAM could own a flying Bf 110?
:diablo:
Canberra PR7 cockpit WH779
Details of the Canberra PR7 cockpit WH779 have now been posted on the website c/w picture.
Where are they displayed? :confused:
