Good opportunity to see the show in the morning and the nearby Tangmere Military Aviation Museum (https://tangmere-museum.org.uk/) in the afternoon.

WELL worth a visit, even if only to see WB188, the all red Hunter F3 prototype, which broke the Air Speed Record in 1953.

And Meteor F4 EE549, also at Tangmere, was another world air speed record holder.  Also one of the build options in Special Hobby's Meteor F.4 kit ( SH72361).

Oh, of course! How silly of me to forget. 

That's the yellow one, isn't it, flown by Sqdn Ldr Donaldson IIRC?

Take time to ask about the PR-19 while there.  The staff like to practice their denials...

A different museum, the PR19's at Cosford, around 200 miles to the north.

I'll be up in Geordie Land for the Tyneside show on the Sunday, that's if they've sobered up  , otherwise I'd have popped down.

I thought it was, but no - it's wears a high gloss camouflage scheme with a modified cockpit canopy.  And it have full-span wings.
