so is this museum day open to all ?? and what sort of thing can one expect ??
It is open to all (93rd Bomb Group Museum). Some of the aircraft may be tempted out of the hangar. Occasionaly some aircraft come in to visit, no set plan as such.
The Gent in the cockpit certainly seems pleased with it.
That’s good…..
One or two more from today (when the sun was out)





Any pic of the Stearman? I rather like them…. 🙂
Was there anything else of interest there today? I won’t be able to make it this year.
That will teach you to listen to me, it was 30th June 44 that she was assigned to the 339th 😉
Anyway here are some of mine fron today








I mess about with old aeroplanes (in drizzle today)
I’ve met the owners of the L5 once or twice, a few pics of it here taken on Sunday (together with a Cub from the same airfield).




And a few more L5 pics from the last year or so.





Finally an Auster V

How can you confuse something so graceful and good looking with a Spitfire???????
he send to me the following words:
janie nor Marinell will fly at legends
so i think see is nearing competion
Will be nice to see.
if I can count I only come to five P-51’s: Old crow( Confirmed to me by SHF), Miss Helen?, Miss Velma, Big beautifull Doll and Feroucious Frankie. Maybe the the French one Nooky Booky IV but they send me a e-mail that they only send there P-40N Little Jeanie. A Other option is the Dutch Mustang: Damn Yankee but the last couple of years he asked to much money( he only came ones to Legends I thought 2002 he flew in formation with the A-36 Apache). No way Marinell, Jumping Jaques or Janie will appear because they send me a e-mail that they don’t participate. I put my money at the swedish P-51 It’s about time.
What about the 2 in Germany?
Yep thats the one, AJD imported it, took the engine and sold on the project.
A bit of an ‘in joke’ Rearwin Cloudster G-EVLE gave up its engine (before restoration)
Runways, hangars, fuel storage tanks….
Yes yes i know that…. but i think we may have swayed off topic (more than the wobbly bridge in London)
And building regs relate to historic aviation how exactly??????
