Classic Air Force (18) - 14 September 2013

The Classic Air Force, housed in the former Nimrod hangar at Newquay Airport (St Mawgan) preserves and, in some cases, flies numerous aircraft many of which were previously owned by Air Atlantique and displayed at Airbase Coventry].

Even in the most excellent museums, the barriers can be very annoying but, I suppose they are necessary to keep at bay the unruly and the careless especially when, as here, an exhibit is in flying condition. This is an ex-Swiss Air Force Venom (J-1614) now WK436.
