I visited the NEAM today and took a load of pictures.

Some of them are:

The Vulcan was in a sorry state and they recently have started a restoration campaign. Lets hope they continue.

I ended up taking a load of the Vulcan, from all differant angles, some good, some not so good.

Hope you enjoyed these :)

This is just a small museum but has been around for a long while. I have a load more pics but shot them all in RAW so have to process them! With space being so tight indoors I wish I had a wider lens.

I didn't know any of that survived.

Still in EgyptAir colour as Dan Air only ferried it to Lasham and it had the registration in large letters on the roof over the wing

Another of the fleet was left as a hulk in Egypt after Dan Air picked it clean
