It's a very interesting place! A very unusual collection of exhibits for someone who is more used to the likes of Duxford and Hendon :) Still I was surprised to see so many classic British types there!

Interesting Leif...
too bad for the pilot who drew the short straw that day then.. :-(
Just shows you, you can invest millions of dollars or pounds into a state of the art design, but best laid plans....well, you get the idea. That's why the tried and (battle) tested designs are the best in my opinion...Ok yeah, if I could I'd like to see a return to straight-wingers! Poor 117 pilot probably couldn't believe his bad luck.
