Back to the RAF Museum


The Feb half term saw us paying a return visit to an old haunt, the RAF Museum at Cosford, which is both an interesting place to visit and a handy indoor, free, museum for rainy winter days with The Childs.  We've pretty much done this place to death with many visits, so not many photographs on this visit, but there were one or two new exhibits since our last trip there.  Best for me (Ben) was the rather awesome Bolton-Paul "Defiant", looking menacing in night-fighter black.


Up on the top shelf of the Cold War hangar, impressive as always with the planes hanging from the roof like so many over sized Airfix kits.


Being as we hadn't really been planning any photography this trip, we only had phone cameras, but it did mean a bit of a play for odd, abstract angles.






I really like this view, with the lines of the roof backing up the English Electric "Lightning" interceptor.


Keeping up the habit with recent posts of having an odd-one-out shot, this was taken on the same visit but at a different location.  This is the Wyre Forrest, near Bewdley, where we will be returning later in the year with proper cameras...
