Loose chronological parameters this time, but you get the idea.
The information boards and artefacts from the Korean War section were excellent and certainly taught me a lot.
One thing that really struck home were the multiple copies of aircraft; at least four Sabres, three C-130s, two Constellations, two B-57s, three Phantoms (and an F-4B cockpit done up as a C) all fitting into the relvant historical period.
I just wonder if anyone from a certain museum in north London is viewing this lot and realising you can do aircraft and people and artefacts and different variants of aircraft and meld it all together into something magnificent. (pigs might fly!)
The one in this section which had really wanted to add to the tick list was the RB-45 Tornado which I have been interested in since I saw photos of them in RAF markings and read the “over the Iron Curtain” stories. Much bigger than I suspected.
