    More RAF Museum Pictures

    I'd forgotten just how big these things are, the prop blades were bigger than me!


    Part of a Gladiator


















    Not the prettiest aircraft ever made, but still striking








    The more you look at it, the more ominous it gets..............






















    The empty car park also allows me to do this, my two favourite past times in one!

    Life's goal is not to arrive safely at the grave in a well preserved body. But rather to slide in sideways, totally worn out and broken, shouting "Holy cr*p, WHAT A RIDE !!"
