Stow Maries evening fly in. 10.6.16

[Tinker Toy]

Hello all,

I spent a wonderful Friday at Stow Maries watching some lovely flying machines. It was my first visit, and I am impressed by the place. It is incredible how many of the original First World War buildings still stand. Speaking to some of the volunteers there are plans of restoring all the buildings and expanding the museum quite a bit. The displays by the home team were excellent. It is really wonderful to see near perfect First World War airframes display at such a fitting venue.

Nice photos Ben. Really looking forward to these three at the Edwardian Show at Old Warden in August. Have to say if I get to see the Albatross it will be my highlight this year! Karl

Thank you for the comment! It is a great aircraft and the pilot was one from Shuttleworth, he flies a great display!
