Large men vs. child-sized planes!
If you like looking at planes then the RAF Museum in Hendon is great, several hangers with a few planes in, then one massive hanger with looooads of planes in it!
While I understand that this technology comes from and is designed for war, the section in the new visitor centre glorifying/justifying it, including a kids game controlling a UAV “taking photos” of targets below seems a bit much!
Though don’t let that stop you from going if you like planes. It’s mostly just a shitload of planes in a few buildings. —

XW547 at the RAF Museum, Hendon is a superb example of a Blackburn Buccaneer S2B displayed in the 'desert pink' camo of the first Gulf War (1991). The airframe was delivered to 15 Squadron at RAF Laarbruch in November 1972 and took part in Operation Western Fox (1983), later equipped with the Sea Eagle missile. During #operationgranby XW547 flew from Muharraq in Bahrain wearing 'Guinness Girl' and 'Pauline' nose art. As was customary with Buccaneer crews in the conflict, she was also assigned a whisky: The Macallan. Retired to the #rafmuseum in 1993, XW547 retains her temporary desert paint scheme, which looks authentically grimy to this day! #aviation #aviationlovers #aviationlover #aviationinstagram #aviationphotos #aviationgeek #aircraft #aircraftspotting #aircraftlovers #planes #planefan #planelovers #planefans #airplanes #planespotter #planespotting #avgeek #avgeeks #instagramaviation #militaryaviation #militaryaircraft #warplanes #aviationporn #blackburnbuccaneer #buccaneers2b #operationdesertstorm #rafmuseumhendon
