I saw someone mention a Gannet as well, there's one in North Lincolnshire...near where I live..I live in South Yorkshire... Don't think Lincolnshire.

Avro Lancaster G-BVBP KB 994
Avro Lincoln G-APRJ RF 342
B 25 Mitchell G-BWGR 44 - 30925

Percival Provost P56 T1 G-BZRF WV 499
Percival Provost P56 T1 G-BZRE XX421
Fairey Gannet G-BMYP XL 502
de Havilland Vampire T.11 G-BZRC WZ 584
de Havilland Vampire T.11 G-BZRD XH 313
de Havilland Sea Vixen XN 691
Gloster Meteor NF Mk. 14 WS 776
Bristol Bloodhound Missile Mk l
Bristol Bloodhound Missile Mk ll

That's what they have, don't think it's full aircraft though, last time I went most were in pieces except the Gannet. I know they aren't all WW2 but I though someone might be interested, it's Sandtoft airfield if anyone has heard of it. It was an aerodrome in World War 2, so some of you should know, at least.

I am amazed that nobody has mentioned the Amiot 143. It is in my opinion the uglyest ever. Like a box with wings. Go find some pictures of it now, I don't know how to post them.
