Just had an up-date from Duxford, informing that the American Museum, situated at the west end of the airfield, will re-open on 19th March.
The Museum has been closed for the past year, whilst re-furbishment of the building was undertaken, and some exhibits re-painted and general maintenance...
I like all WWII aircraft, but my all time favorite is the Mustang. I love reading about it, watching documentaries about it, building models of it, etc. Who else can't get enough of this marvelous bird?

We will start this thread off with what I am told was a static Battle of Britain movie participant.
This airframe is currently in the annex building, which in typical Canadian fashion requires a separate admission fee from the Museum admission fee which is on top of paying to park. The museum...
Here are all the Typhoon photos that I got this weekend. I hope one or more are of some help to those who are currently building or thinking about building a Typhoon model. For those not building, enjoy...
