I found this small batch of photos from a trip with my friend Neil* and his family to Duxford in May last year - oops - and thought it was high time I shared some of them.
I didn't take many photos because I forgot to bring an empty SD card along. This is not at all rare. But here are a handful of images I'm not utterly ashamed of:
 |
| Concorde's Engineering Heritage award! |
A fabulous machine, sadly departed. Is there a modern commercial aeroplane with anything like the appeal of concorde?
 |
| Inside a plane. Possibly Concorde. It's been a while since I took it... |
What can I say? I have a thing for
tubes.
 |
| An engine-y bit. |
This looks very much like it could be a part of the Millennium Falcon. Or is that just me? And last but not least...
 |
| The belly of the beast... |
Could this be anything other than the bomb bay of a
Vulcan? I got some cracking shots of the last remaining flying (and sadly not-to-be-flying-much-longer) Vulcan bomber doing its thing at an air show a few weeks ago. Keep 'em peeled for that post...
I'm not too impressed with these shots. I'm going to blame it on a combination of poor planning and forethought combined with a distinct rustiness, but there are some shots from more recent outings that I'm much happier with, so stay tuned! If you want to see the rest of this batch (there aren't many) you can
check out the album on Flickr.
* You can see some of Neil's shots from the day here. He's a far more accomplished photographer than I am.
