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.
oh that was fab ron!
me dad took me to farnsborough(?) in about 1970 but cant be sure of the year exactly, but i am sure i was typical of just about every young lad who's interests were space, aeroplanes and dinosaurs!

On this subject there are some excellent doco's on planes on youtube, I stumbled upon a story this morning on the British developed SR2 alsp the P38 Lightning, there are heaps more on Spitire, Hurricane, Mosquito etc.
