Ten Ways to Improve RAF Duxford:
Steam Clean the acres of concrete (I think they were experimenting with a way to do this as the site looks a bit grubby).
Repaint the hangers and other buildings in more appropriate shades of brown and green. I think the shades are similar to those worn by the Hawker Hurricane and Avro Rota displayed in the ‘Battle of Britain’ hangar
Replace the green house located on top of the control tower with something that looks more in keeping with a wartime structure. Remove the double glazing with something just has energy efficient.
Open up the Fire Section to visitors
Fly the RAF Ensign
Paint the curb stones where appropriate black and white.
Less inappropriate street furniture
Get rid of the OFMC portacabin
Paint the Flight Line Fence
and finally… 😉
Its alright you saying “Ways to improve RAF Duxford”. I think you’ll find it’s a bit to late, what you suggest above is fine, however, due to the fact you have a huge concrete wood louse next to hanger 5, the white elephant at the east end and the land warfare hall down the west, not to mention the cheap rides that seem to have set roots outside 2 hanger in the summer.
A lot needs doing.
