Pathfinder Museum

A visit to the interesting Pathfinder museum at RAF Wyton, which commemorates the Pathfinder Force whose Squadrons were tasked with leading the main bomber forces to accurately designate enemy targets.  This museum is not normally open to the public, so a wonderful opportunity to visit this hidden treasure.!

RAF Coningsby Enthusiasts Day

A rare opportunity to visit RAF Coningsby, photograph the static aircraft (including the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight) and talk to the aircrew.  Photography of aircraft movements on the day was excellent, and there was a variety of aircraft present to keep everyone happy.

Toulouse, France (Visit 1)

Another great day out, flying on easyJet from Gatwick to Toulouse-Blagnac airport, with a visit to the excellent Ailes Anciennes museum in wonderful sunny conditions. This was followed by a look around the various Airbus ramps before going on the afternoon's 14:30 A380 Production site visit, followed by a pizza and a drink before heading home. Thoroughly enjoyed by the 10 people who took part. If you would like to join us on the next visit then please see our Visits Programme for full details.
