Re: aviationanoraks.co.uk is now also aviationanoraks.com (27/2/24)
Now we finally seem to be getting over some of the technical issues that have plagued us recently, aviationanoraks.co.uk is now back up as our regular feature platform. The .com version of the website will hopefully become our archive, but this is going to take some time to rebuild. Anyway, this wee...

Re: Mark Petrie - RIP
Always a pleasure to see Mark display over the years, a polished routine that showed the Strikemaster off beautifully. We never met Mark, but a personal memory that always made us smile was joking he was stalking us when we were on holiday in the South West as we saw the Strikemaster three days runn...

The Shuttleworth Collection at Old Warden is our subject matter this week, so no need for too many words as everyone here knows the collection very well.

Photos this week on the website come from our visit to Rougham Control Tower Museum in Suffolk.

Plenty of action with the home team, Norwegian Air Force, the Top Aces Alpha Jets, and finally got to see a Skyhawk in the air too! https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53346148806_ab7a136f5b_h.jpg IMG_5395 by...

Still having the odd issue with the website, but we have now uploaded a set of photos from the RAF Marham Heritage Centre, located in the former chapel.

If this is what regional news site the Yorkshire Post is already reporting, it’s “big” news.
Good luck to them.

We continue our look around Solway Aviation Museum this week. One of the few ex-RAF Phantoms in preservation is XV406 at Solway Aviation Museum, which used to be the gate guard at RAF Carlisle. Not only is it good to see a British-spec Phantom preserved, this one is currently in the earlier camoufla...
