RE: Ashley is the New P51 at Duxford yet?

I met ‘Yellow Kilo’ for the first time yesterday, nestled in Hanger 2, and she assured me she likes her new home and that she’s sure she’ll be very happy here 😉

RE: Here’s an inspiring pic.

Hmmmmm…more plane less boat please 😉

Thanks Ja 🙂

RE: Not to be missed

RE: Yorkshire Air museum

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 11-04-02 AT 11:37 AM (GMT)]neilly…it’s on my list of museums to visit…just haven’t got there yet 🙂

RE: Yorkshire Air museum

Sadsack…is there such a thing as a good or bad museum? I’m interested in the Battle of Britain, so museums such as Hawkinge and Manston are particular favourites as mine…where as the Helicopter Museum is not of such interest to me, but I certainly would not say it’s not a good museum…

And as for the YAM…I love it, I think it’s fantastic, but that’s just my opinion…like David said, get a Museum guide and see what you think from that…but even then, in my humble opinion, some museums are far more interesting and have lots more to see than a brief listing in a museum guide can put across…

RE: Queen mother funeral flypast

That’s funny…I thought one of the Spitfires was the MkIX too…

But on the subject of flypasts people…has anyone heard which aircraft might be featuring in the Queen’s Jubilee Flypast in June? I know it’s supposed to be showcasing the modern RAF, but will it include former RAF types too?
