And want to see a real Spitfire..[/quote]

I highly recommend Cem Manston Air Museum in Kent which has a great collection of Battle of Britain memorbilia including Spitfires.



Superb flying machines beyond comparison due to their unique history in the minds of the British people.

These metal birds have a special place in your country's defence..

and many pilot died during war.. so really want to see them..

I could also take you over to Ireland for some proper Guiness Cem.
The stuff they export is just the slops.  

Ireland .. Will be really interesting to see those

places.. Only I see in the pictures and google maps :-/

Evening Cem. If you like old aircraft then Lincolnshire is one of the best UK counties with viewing areas at the many RAF bases. We also have the last 2 remaing Lancaster bombers, one in East Kirkby airfield which does'nt fly but taxis on showdays & RAF Coningsby have the only one that still flys, i've stood under it as it's coming in to land, it appears to hover, stays up at a really slow speed & the noise is incredible. 8-)

I did my work exerience at Coningsby with the Battle of Britain - was absolutley amazing. Helped take an engine out of a Hurricane and plonk it into No.3 slot on the Lancaster whilst i was there (all because there were was a tiny amount of swarf in the oil from an oil change)  

The best bit was chaining one of the Spitfires down and running the motor up to speed - the ear Defenders were a waste of time  

Wing commander took me up in a Chipmunk and also did a flyover in the Dakota. Great week
