Good choice! Much safer location here. Could have drowned in Bulls**t on the inside?
Re: Duxford Diary 2022
Better light too if you ask me. Nice photos!

Duxford Wednesday 26th January:
Work on the DAS Herald continues, horizontal tail now removed and fin/rudder next:
Destination is now confirmed as Morayvia at Kinloss, but work will take a week or two:
The BAe146 CC.2 was 'sanitised' and handed over by the RAF today. New owners (of all 4 146s) are Pionair of Australia who will oversee some work before handover to DAS.
I'm told it is now G-CMEU (just for the paperwork):
The Aero Vintage DH.9's Puma was receiving attention today, hopefully it will be seen flying this year.
Among today's visitors, Minicab G-BRGW:

Re: Duxford Diary 2022
Nice to see the Victor continue it's journey back to completion. Is the Shackleton still there, as I hope it will be next on the list.
Re: Duxford Diary 2022
I wish with all my heart these aircraft were displayed in a way they were clearly visible.
They should knock down the AAM and just build a big, cheap square hangar where they can pull exhibits in and out for proper display... I can dream!

Re: Duxford Diary 2022
I rather agree with this. The year they had the B-29 pulled out of the front - though they tried to mess up even that with a building site fence - it had more attention than the flying attractions.
Edit: for those who missed it:

To get that photo, the camera must have been on a very big pole.
