Papa Lima,

My wife tolerates alot things regarding my hobbies….but she has drawn the line at me taking a stepladder along with me! I did climb the one in the picture , just to see what it was like!!!

Midland Air Museum (recent visit)

I made my first vist to the museum at Coventry at the end of March. The staff were great and the aircraft were obviously well looked after. The Canberra was spectacular! 🙂

Cosford Liberator

I’m a new poster so be gentle! 🙂

I’ve been lucky enough to be on a training course at RAF Cosford for a couple of weeks, so as I hadn’t visited the museum before I thought I’d give it a quick look. I’ve been back every lunchtime and evening for the last five days and no doubt I’ll be back on Monday. 🙂

I noticed the Liberator was on skates so asked the Cosford staff what was happening. Apparently the Dakota is going to the convservation centre next week (to go back to a bare metal finish?), so the Liberator, Jetstream and Hastings need to be moved outside. This is going to occur next week. I’ll be back and will post any piccies I get.

Anyway I hope these pictures contribute something to the thread.
