They’re so good.
Someone needs to bring in a 109 or 190 for us all.

Whe I was doing my lap of Oz last year, I did a 400+ km detour to go and see the Hunter Warbirds Museum at Scone.
They have a great collection and a lot of them still fly.

The most beautiful plane ever made.

Sopwith Camel?
Roughly 3/4 scale repro. Not many genuine , radial engined Camels left that can fly.
New Zealand have one apparently, they even sourced a gnome engine from France iirc.

It’s on Boeing Field and part of it is housed in the original Boeing building. Close enough for me.
Funniest bit was the hundred boomerang throwers departing through the gift shop and each having to review the merits of the boomerangs on sale there.

I knew it wasn’t called the Boeing Museum, but did not recall whether it was owned by them.
No…I don’t think it is.
The Museum of Flight is the largest independent, non-profit air and space museum in the world! With over 175 aircraft and spacecraft, tens of thousands of artifacts, millions of rare photographs, dozens of exhibits and experiences and a world-class library, the Museum and its people bring humankind’s incredible history of flight to life.
But it is possibly the best flight museum I’ve visited…either that or the RAF Museum in London.
I saw both within the space of 4-5 months and remember thinking that the RAF Museum probably had better planes (imo) but The Museum of Flight displayed their planes so much better.

That’s really weird
This is the last paragraph and a bit I typed in the above post:

Stupid blitz…what is happening to my posts?
I can see those original paragraphs in your previous post.
