Yep Duxford is awesome. Was there in '96. Easy to get to from london or Cambridge. Highlight was a flypast of the only flying Lanc with a escort of 4 Spits.
Low light was a fatal crash of a P38 which dropped out of a roll during a pass and hit the embankment of the M11 motorway.

The museum itself is very good and the static displays are worth a visit art any time.
