The Dangerous Skies Exhibition

[nuuumannn]

Hi Guys,

I went to see the newly revamped Dangerous Skies exhibition at Omaka, Blenheim, New Zealand yesterday and snapped some photos. I've been playing around with lighting effects, mainly because my pics came out real grainy - my camera just doesn't like it in there.

It's a full-scale reproduction made by a local avionics engineer and based on CAD drawings, so it looks the part. It's made of wood and clad with ali scavenged from the local air force base maintenance hangars! For the exhibition it was jazzed up considerably with the fitting of the dive brakes and detailing and it just looks spiffy.

The Hurricane is also a full-scale repro made of wood and fibreglass and was allegedly originally made for the Battle of Britain film.
