Been there several times .. its less than 10 miles from me ...  :)  One day is NOT enough to see everything they have there, absolutely fascinating some of the more "mundane" stuff ... yeah the airplanes are great . but things like the collection of radios and bikes .... and loads amore stuff you don't think of as 2museum" stuff .. but it is history...  :)

Visited Wroughton a few years ago now .........  :y

Had a great day out, and transport from the Principality was aboard my (then!) friends preserved AEC Reliance coach - which I drove :D

Mrs Sethsmate was indeed impressed ..........  ;)
