Re: Miscellaneous Newark Air Museum News 2015
As we try to cope with what Sunday Vulcan visitors might bring; some fresh information has been added in here about access to XM594 etc. http://www.newarkairmuseum.org/latest-news
Museum emails swept again first thing this morning and still nothing official received; just working off information that is circulating via the Internet – we should cope somehow, but please follow any local advice that you may encounter.

Our long-term offer of allowing public access to various museum aircraft, including Vulcan XM594 continues to attract a good number of visitors to the museum, not least during the current half term holiday week.
We would also like to remind people that on Sunday 8th November we will be holding our annual Remembrance Sunday Service at the RAF Winthorpe Memorial.
Details about our open cockpit opportunities and Remembrance Sunday can be found in here!
