World aviation museum and gate guard map

[PR19_Kit]

There's a Wessex HC2, XR516, just inside the gate at RAF Shawbury. location 52.792687, -2.656130.

I know for sure because I passed right by it this morning en route to Telford from my daughter's place. She lives right on the base, handy.  She's also The Best Air Traffic Controller in the RAF, not a lot of people know that. (but quite a few on here do..... )



Nicked from here http://picssr.com/tags/xr516 it was dark when I went by.....

Also please note my Reply #85 above about RAF Croughton's F-105 and F-100D.

Rather lost in the comments after it is the fact that they're not there anymore and there are NO gate guards at Croughton any more.

Yep, PR19_Kit, I saw that they are gone 

I will add the Wessex; I think that is one I have been looking for.  Some are too well camouflaged!  And congrats to your daughter.  Tough, important job.

The Rat, I found the MiG-21 at that base, apparently at the main gate instead of the air park:     22.85488, -82.51333
I see what you saw in the air park, plus an Mi-4, T-6, T-28, T-33, maybe a Twin Beech.  I added/corrected the other stuff you posted.

Just took another look, what I said was a MiG-17 actually looks more like a 19.

[reddfoxx]

I see a 19 (silver, towards the back) and a 17 (camo, almost invisible up front.)  So, front row, left to right: T-33, A-26, MiG-17, probable T-28, probable Twin Beech.  Back row: MiG-19, Mi-4, possible MiG-27 under the tree, probable MiG-23, maybe an O-1 (did they have those?), probable T-6.

CFB Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, there are a few aircraft around 50.338731, -105.557586 One is a T-33, the yellow one is a Harvard, the white one may be another Harvard but it's not clear.

Excellent stuff ! I have found a few more, over on my Tank Hunting in Michigan thread.

All added, thanks!  Captain Canada, I have been watching that thread and will check back.  Just today I passed a tank destroyer on a Sherman hull (don't remember the model) in Circleville, Ohio.  I go that way often and will get a picture when I can.

There's this one outside the USMC Proving Grounds Yuma main gate, and across the road is a display of armoured vehicle and surface to surface missiles



and outside the USMC base in Yuma there are a number of other jets.

And at the Palm Springs Air Museum there are some other gate guards, an F-14, some others and this one below

Added, thanks.  Nice shots, Kitnut617.  I'm not sure about the Cobra- I have one at Laguna Army Airfield just north of Yuma- is that the proving grounds?

Cheers reddfoxx, just did a google search to find out what the place is called and found that it's the Yuma Proving Ground United States Army. Found some photos that show what is there.
