Dragon Rapide from Goodwood

Heres a few photos I took from today's flight in no sensible order:

Rapide seen from outside the Aero clubhouse after the Prentice had departed

Just after disembarking

Goodwood racecourse

RAF Tangmere, mostly now covered in glasshouses

Tangmere again, the main runway ran from about midway up on the left hand side and its "shadow" can be seen running up behind the greenhouses to the wingtip of the Rapide.

To the left Goodwood racecourse, to the right "The Trundle" with the two grey radio masts just about visible

The Rapide again as I walked back to the clubhouse

Sure it wasn't Cuxsford where they have the other museum?
