September 11, 201312 yr #53 I've been to Duxford Museum three times in three trips to the UK, that's how good it is. Highly recommended. Thanks for posting. The D-Day musuem in Southsea, near Portsmouth, is also well worth a visit. The UK has some really great museums.
September 11, 201312 yr #54 I can't believe that just about anyone can now have an SR-71.... Seriously thanks for posting your tribute and giving us a look see. Always enjoy your threads.
September 11, 201312 yr Author #55 Thanks Manay....good to have you posting again! ( An SR-71 I can pick up almost anywhere!)

September 11, 201312 yr #65 Ian, These are some amazing pictures. It is almost like we are there. However, I could not imagine seeing all of these planes in person. The B-25 in post number 63 is interesting. I am not sure that I have ever seen a picture of one painted blue like that. Most of the ones I remember were green or silver. Where would they have used a blue one? ...Kat

September 11, 201312 yr Author #69 Great photos. I definitely hope to get there some day! JD Thanks JD. Add it to the "bucket list"!
September 12, 201312 yr #70 Nice selection. B-24's are rare to find. I have never been close to one on the ground, although I managed to see one in flight... while I was in the middle of a job interview on the 8th floor of a high rise in Ft. Worth, TX! It was hard to stay focused on the interview!
September 12, 201312 yr #71 Terrific thread Ian! Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to share these top-notch images with us. Russ
