Memorials page

While on our travels we come across many memorials dedicated to the brave men and women who gave their lives so we could enjoy a peaceful one

Some of these are by the side of the road some are in the middle of a field so we try to look out for the more obscure ones

No one should be forgotten

Following the Sea Vixen’s successful display closing the show at Duxford Air Show, upon her return the Sea Vixen suffered an under carriage failure and Pilot Cdr Simon Hargreaves performed a highly controlled wheels up text book landing at RNAS Yeovilton showing first class airmanship.

Work by Assessors estimate that it could take between 3-4 years and cost £2-3M to get her flying again. A white knight is needed in the next month who would be prepared to come to the rescue and under-write these costs and save the last flying Sea Vixen in the world, recognising her uniqueness and value to the Nation’s naval aviation heritage.

EE Lightning F.53 (G-AWON)

This week we profile the City of Norwich Aviation Museum EE Lightning.

Originally displayed at Farnborough in 1968 as 'G-AWON', this aircraft went

to Saudi Arabia as ’53-686’ and finally came back to the UK in 1986 as ‘ZF592'.

She wears Saudi colours on one side and her Farnborough scheme on the other.

City Of Norwich Aviation Museum.

This week we take a look at the very friendly air museum next door to Norwich Airport.

This was our first visit since the new dual carriageway cut the museum off from the airport

but hopefully as the aircraft are visible from the new road more passing tourists may visit.
