The IWM at Duxford has gathered the largest collection of Spitfires under one roof since the inception of the museum, showing the development of the Spitfire.

Admission to all the museum has been included in the price.

Sounds like a great way to spend a Saturday in the mist of winter.
I'm planning to go on the 29th of January, any takers?

That's odd, I've just booked my ticket.
The entry to the exhibition, I believe, is included in the general admission cost.

Ah, I'm not surprised the specific tours are sold out.

I'm looking forward to a day at Duxford, looking at porn with wings! :spin::biggrin:

My ticket is timed for 12.30.

If you've never been to Duxford, its a full day to explore all the exhibitions.
I've been going into Duxford for over 40 years, so head to the areas of interest e.g. The restoration hangers.

I'm happy to meet earlier if any of you guys wish to explore the museum in full, it's a petrol heads heaven!

There is a bit of a taster which has been recently posted on YouTube. Probably the same fellow presenting it as will be doing the tours?
