The red shed- Where the original Boeing company started making planes..

The very first 737 to roll off the line

and the very first 747....with a wee mee underneath!

The original Airforce One





The last Concorde to fly....the windows were tiny and it was very cramped....

but it has four of these bad boys so I'll forgive it.











The WW1 area was pretty expansive although a lot (of course) were recreations.





Me having a play in a very basic sim they have there.
