De Havilland Museum Model Show, Sunday 29th May 2022
Stu_davros replied to spruecutter96's topic in Shows
Great show, great museum. Appalling traffic coming home though. (42 miles in 2 hours) -
Have you tried Vectis, specialist toy auctions. They have sold kits in the past. https://www.vectis.co.uk/

I'd be surprised if they could have made a Lincoln fit in the hangar, I could be wrong though.

My (admittedly limited research) seems to suggest that the metallic finish aircraft were ministry of supply aircraft for test and research. I guess this would be why it's being maintained at RAE Farnborough. Does anyone know when they were retired? This might give a clue as to when the picture was taken. Thanks for everyones replies, I'm not a vulcan expert by any measure.

That's because all the crap is behind me.

RAE Farnborough. Sorry I forgot to mention that.

I recently had this picture sent to me: It's taken in the hangar that I work in so today I tried taking a current version: It's a little off but the best I could do. Does anyone have any idea of a date of the first picture or the particular Vulcan in the image?

It was a newish truck (5 years old max), certainly not a restored unit. I think Rich has hit the nail on the head, it was probably a temporary flat bed for transport and the truck was being relocated for use shunting trailers. It was where I work at Farnborough airport and it was coming on site, possibly preparing for the Airshow in June. Cheers Guys.

Hello Rich, It had no crane or connection for a trailer. It was a 4x2 truck with a small flat bed on the back of the chassis instead of the 5th wheel.

Another question, today as I was leaving work I saw a truck which had me wondering. At first sight It looked like a standard semi truck you see on British roads (a Scania I think ) but instead of the 5th wheel on the back it had a flat bed with a small load on it. Why would you need such a large truck for such a small load? Is it for transporting very small but very heavy loads? Cheers, Stuart

Count me in Patrice, I have lots of Mirage kits ( at least I think I've seen some in the heat of the stash.) Stuart -
