Popped in here this morning. Tbh I didn’t know it existed as I hadn’t been to the north of Scotland in the best part of 20 years. It’s close to the former RAF Kinloss and run by a great bunch of volunteers, many of whom have flown the types on display and have some fascinating stories. I really recommend a visit if you are up that way. I’ve uploaded these from my phone so not sure why they are sideways but I’ll sort it when I get to my computer tomorrow night.

[EDIT] Sorry for the sideways confusion. All sorted now and a couple of others added.

Those are just the outdoor exhibits. They’ve lots more inside the old primary school building and have the complete Nimrod XV244 which is still on the base at the moment.

Thanks, Ben. Despite being "in the business" I didn't know it existed, either. Strange though - after reading your post I had a terrible crick in the neck.

Its a great place. Actually housed in what used to me the RAF Kinloss Primary School. Mark and the boys do a tremendous job in keeping this aviation heritage available to the public.

The Valiant nose and Whilwind are in the shed at the moment and I think I spotted the tail of a Jindivik in there too. It’s all very up close and personal with the exhibits which is great.

Those shots knocked me sideways.

I have a crick in my neck now.

Well, we've tried but it doesn't look like Ben is going to pick-up on the hints.

I suppose we could try a more direct approach such as "Oi, Ben, your photos need rotating 90 degrees to the right" but that seems a little impolite to me.

He did say he would rotate them when he gets home

BTW. there is a Dragonfly at the NE Air Museum which is being rebuilt.
