Well yes I suppose it should, but that Vulcan comes with the scenery, so I parked it next door.

I've got a photo somewhere taken from the Superhangar right down towards the AAM, and you can only see two or three people. Not unexpected as it was a very cold January weekday, but it was a little eerie nontheless. I'll see if I can dig it out.

I agree with you, the Halifax could certainly do with some more detail both inside and out, but as you say, its a keeper. Actually I really only got the package for the Halton, which compliments Ed Walters' Lancastrian nicely.

I remember going a few years back on a bank holiday monday. The good lady was feeling a little wild (as we were leaving the pub on a bank holiday) and said.. shall we go out and if so, where to?? Of course, she shouldn't have asked!!

I couldn't believe how quiet it was.. almost desolate considering the day so.. we went up in AIYR as she was then (Green and Cream as opposed to Silver with RAF roundels). I must have a shot here somewhere so I'll post it if I can find it

BrianW was, and I stress was, having a tweak of the Halibag's FD a long while back. Wonder if he got around to finishing it?? :think:

Ah, great stuff Dave, my two daughters and I went up in the green and cream Rapide a few years back. They still have the certificates. Duxford is a delight, isn't it.

If you find out about any tweaks to the Halifax, can you let me know ? I really like it, so any improvements would be very welcome.
