TORNADO CANOPY

The museum is now open again for the 2019 Season and is open the last Sunday of every month until October, We are also able to open by appointment for individuals and groups. Contact us for details. Over the Winter we have been busy around the museum site maintaining grounds and buildings, and we have also been busy around the museum cleaning, tidying and improving displays. One new display for this year is a Tornado GR4 canopy donated by Paul Kennard from Bexhill. We do not know the exact identity of the aircraft it was last fitted to however a radio frequency card fitted in the Navigators section of the canopy lists Lossimouth, Tain and 617 Squadron. It is therefore a fair assumption that the canopy was last fitted to a 617 Squadron Toranado GR4. We look forward to seeing you at the museum in 2019.

Member Phil Baldock lays out the display items.

Thanks to Peter, Clive, Alan, Roy, Alan and Trevor for assisting with moving the very heavy canopy!
