Title: Scottish National Museum of Flight - East Fortune
Post by: Jim (Chairman) on 21/07/2014, 12:11:23 PM
All,

During my week in Scotland, I managed to visit the Scottish National Museum of Flight at East Fortune, Scottish Borders.

Here's their website: http://www.nms.ac.uk/our_museums/national_museum_of_flight.aspx (http://www.nms.ac.uk/our_museums/national_museum_of_flight.aspx)

It's an old WWI / WWII airfield that was used to protect the Forth Estuary.

It's most recent addition was a BA Concorde callsign Alpha Alpha.

They also had a huge restoration hanger with about six planes being rebuilt. Awesome, could have spent all day in there but the three ladies I was with were not interested at all in "dirty plane bits" so it was a whistle-stop tour.

Highly recommended if you are in the area.

Here are my (quickly taken) photos: http://www.eight33n.com/gallery2/v/Scottish+National+Museum+of+Flight/ (http://www.eight33n.com/gallery2/v/Scottish+National+Museum+of+Flight/)


Cheers!
