Nice photos Nick - Duxford is way up on my list if / when I ever get over to the old dart! ( love the Mitchell hanging from the roof like an airfix model )
I wonder if the German uniforms in their displays are the real deal?????

I think that was road hauled to the museum after landing at either Mildenhall or Lakenheath, the same with the B29 if memory serves
Correction, type in on Google, B52 landing at Duxford, he had to make a pass to guage the distance but he did it
cheers nicklooks like you had a great day out,thanks for sharing the pics,all the best minnie.
