Duxford Museum.
On Sunday I am taking my wife to Duxford. She is interested in anything to do with WW2. I am interested in the Aircraft exhibits and its been 30+ years since I was last there.My question is, roughly, how many a/c are in the museum. Just as a guide.
Your input would be most appreciated.
Thank you

And if you are going Sunday Spring Car Show 2016 and the Blenheim & Catalina are due to fly Sunday for the Abingdon show but have no times for departure or return.

Re: Duxford Museum.
Read off over 150 when I went last month. So plenty to have a look at. Have a great day.

Re: Duxford Museum.
Well, that was a decent day out apart from the great food rip off. lol. Bought 2 x1 year passes as we intend returning at least twice in the next 12 months. I don't what can be considered the norm for weekend flying activities but today was pretty active, with the Catalina returning from a display today ( no sign of the Blenheim while we were there.) Weather was good. Might have a flight on the Rapide at some point.
Thanks everyone again for the pre visit info.

Re: Duxford Museum.
I went into one of the food places once and the staff were all wearing the IWM 'Blimey' T shirt, and the little old lady in front of me in the queue said you're right about Blimey, blimey these prices are expensive!John flightpath wrote:Well, that was a decent day out apart from the great food rip off. lol.
