That’s a bit of a blast from the past!

I used to have this album long ago, also on cassette. IIRC the cover shot was of a Jet Provost. If it is out on CD I too would be very interested.

The head of the museum is Mike Llewellyn

If you let me have your email address, I’ll send you his phone number, best keep it private.

For me, a very early Fighter Meet at North Weald. A dummy U-boat had been contructed which the Catalina proceded to attack, cue a lot of explosions being set off around the ‘U-boat’ which caught fire sending a thick black cloud of smoke towards the crowd-line. Seeing it coming, my brother & I ducked into one of the merchandise stalls untill it had blown over. We emerged to find everyone walking around looking like something off ‘The Black & white minstrels’.

Also at an early Fighter Meet, there was the Ford Escort Mark 1 painted in the same camouflage & markings as the sole Yak-11 that was around at the time.

Ted,

I believe it was the menu card that Gerald had with him, can’t remember the date of it though.

On the subject of the ‘White Hart’ at Brasted, may I suggest a read of ‘Inn of The few’ by Kath Preston. It covers Kath and her husband Teddy’s tenure at the pub from 1932 to 1971. A lovely read if you can get hold of a copy. Val Preston, Kath & Teddy’s daughter is a good friend of the museum, and pops in from time to time.

I can confirm that I am NOT Geoff Nutkins evil twin.

This is a photo I took last weekend. I believe the display panel circled shows what is original & what isn’t.

Perhaps someone can get a close-up of the panel when they next visit.
