Brilliant day at Aviation Heritage Museum yesterday with the opening of ‘The Ray Parke Room’. A fitting tribute to a great man who would have turned 100 today #LestWeForget



The Museum is excited to offer the opportunity to purchase a limited edition ‘Negative Ghost Rider, The Pattern is Full!’ A4 Gloss Photo of the famous moment Tom Cruise character, Maverick (actually Captain Lloyd V. Abel) buzzes the Tower at Miramar Naval Air Station in Top Gun!



Who else would you bump into on a Spitfire flightline, but Jonny Cracknell. We had a great day watching warbirds tussle in clear blue skies. Fascinating discussion with the pilots about the relative merits of the Spitfire, the 109 and the P51 Mustang.



A privilege to honour the memory of Gp Cpt John ‘Paddy’ Hemingway DFC with an 8 pg feature in this months FlyPastMag 🫡 John was the very last surviving #BattleofBritain pilot 85 years on - one of #TheFew who sadly passed away aged 105yrs old on 17th March this year.




All sorts of weather today in the skies at IWM Duxford ☀️🌧️⚡️ But ended with by far my favourite - a gorgeous Hurricane 😍
