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!
The two best tools in any engineer's inventory are brute force and ignorance and he should always live by the engineer's motto "Bodge it and scarper!"

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.
