Daks over Normandy - Duxford 2019

Spent Tuesday and Wednesday at Duxford - probably the last time so many DC-3/C-47 will be together in one place.

Parachute drop rained out - they did the drop in Normandy on Wednesday evening.

Formation take-off and fly by was also delayed past the time I had to leave to catch my flight.

Museum was also open - they have a pretty impressive collection.

Disappointing at how difficult the museum is to reach - no real public transport links. I walked about 2.5km from the nearest station.







The Hungarian aircraft is actually an LI-2 (the only one known to be flying)

I'll try to post some of my video in the coming weeks.

Wow, after going to Airventure I get the feeling video does not give a good sense of the event.
