Visited the DeHavilland Museum today, I thought it was very good, ok not all the aircraft are in perfect condition but they are only a small museum, and I know how hard it is to get volunteers organised with these things!
Any way, I've posted some piccys over at the outhouse:

Excellent, thought it looked like it was time for a new coat, I'm assuming the cockpit isn't that complete since that bit was locked up?
The comet fuselage looks like it may get some new paint soon too, suppose it depends what else is on though

The flightdeck WAS complete James until some git broke in through the wheel bay and took off with a handful of gauges!! Fortunately, I was able to take shots (now residing as gauges in DM's FAB Trident's) before this happened. Needless to say, they're a bit twitchy about leaving it open now and in fact.. they don't!

Its a shame, thats one of the things I really liked about it, the lack of ropes and amount of stuff which was accessible.
But I can see why, we've had problems with that sort of thing occasionally back at Aeroventure

That a sad thing about life
We all hate security and things being roped off, locked and inaccessible......but when they're not some idiot comes along and spoils things
A lot of the time they are no good to anyone but invaluable to where they belong.
It's always the honest folk that suffer at the hands of these degenerates,
I am just sorry that this forum being what it is stops be from using the words I feel are more fitting . :sad:
