London Trip 9 - IWM Duxford - On The Way To The Battle Of Britain

On the way to the Battle of Britain and Air and Sea Gallery Building, we got to see a few more aircraft flying and some static aircraft.

A Yak-52  did a nice takeoff and flying demo.

 The Yak has a great registration number:  G-OALZ. Very nice.

A British Antarctic Survey Twin Otter blasted us with its prop wash during its run up and then took off:

They were not kidding about the prop wash.

A B-17 was also out to be seen:

 

A bunch of passenger transport aircraft were on static display:

There was also a Spitfire on Static display:

Near the Spit was a canteen, so we sought refreshment and bought some Spitfire Amber Ale to drink in front of the Spitfire.

Now refreshed with the Bottle of Britain, We  headed into the Battle of Britain Exhibit.
