Malta Aviation Museum and other relicts

Post by Draken »

Hello,
last October I've visited Malta and their Aviation Museum. Also - having list of planes outside Museum/Airport I managed to catch some rare pieces scattered around the island.
As usual - tricky light conditions in hangars - dark inside with bright windows. Plus - from my 8 days of stay 7 were rainy. Very bad luck with spotting and sightseeing...
Anyway - here are some of my shots:

Aviation Museum - small but nice, very friendly personell.

Dahs is actually moved couple hundreds meters from the location it was for years ;)

The 111 is in Halfar indeed, but not with public access - I've arranged my visit with Training Center Commander.
