Mike J,
Thanks for the info on the Zero.
California City airport.
Dropped in to get a shot of the Convair, and copped the others as well.
Mojave Airport.
Amazing what you can find while wandering around an airport in the USA.
A few classic jets and (I believe) a real-live Zero – anyone know which one/whose this is?
Thanks Guzzineil, will be there.

Dave,
There is a U-2/TR-1 (couldn’t tell which) parked between the two Blackbirds, and there is also one of the experimental drones used on the Blackbirds.
Unfortunately the museum was closed when we turned up, so I had to take all the photo’s through the fence, and the one I got of the U-2 is not that great.
City of Lancaster.
A couple of types found on plinths in Lancaster, which is not far (in USA terms!) from Edwards AFB.
The Hornet is outside the Clear Channel Stadium, and the Phantom is at a road junction not far from the centre of the city.
Thanks to our ‘navigator’ for finding these for us, as I know he lurks here regularly!!
Milestones Of Flight Museum.
A small museum located at Fox Field, and not where I expected to come across an Argosy !
A couple of great shots there – and very good timing!
I flew to Cosford this year on the Twin Pin, and can highly recommend it as a way of flying to any show.
Beats all the traffic, and you get to feel like a VIP on arrival when you see all the camera’s pointing at the aircraft you are in!!
Last few…
..
A few from the flying display…
Apologies for the quality, I blame the grey skies and (mainly) being out of practise due to the long winter break !!!
…
..
Thanks Will.
Mike:
Unfortunately ‘Spam’ is only a single-stick, so I was just along for the ride – but what a ride!!
I’ve posted a few photo’s from the show itself now over on the Airshows forum.
Regards,
TMN
