Cheers it was an idea from another forum member who suggested posting all the exhibits for those who may never get to visit the place......I know it's the first time I've been.

Too many to mention Chris but amongst my favourites were the F-15, B-52 and Phantom off the USS America.

The F4 Phantom has been a favorite of mine since I was a kid. She ranks up there with the P-40 and Spit.

I do not know much of this aircraft. It did participate in Desert Storm I believe. Thinking why I like certain aircraft, as a kid I remember seeing some on the news (F4's) or my older brothers having models of P-40's and Spits. The 60's and 70's the WW2 aircraft were quite popular toys for kids.

:nope: That's a normal F-111, not a Raven - iirc they were all grey and the tail had a huge bump to house some equipment.
