London Museum with planes

Post by Shunn31 »

Hello everybody,

On November 2014, I have gone to London town for the second time and I have visited numbered Museum. This time I have chosen 2 where they contains planes : London Science Museum and London RAF Hendon.

November, 09 : London Science Museum

London Science Museum has just 3 planes viewed by public and for me it was impossible to see planes stored in area not opened to the public...

There's also the Imperial War Musuem which is open for public as well, without. Any entrance fee. Really worth a visit, they also have a German Salamander and a Komet on display.

Have fun!

Thanks so much for your informations ! I'm so frustrated because during my visit to the Science Museum I have gone just to the first ans second floor :( :(
As I love this town, it is the opportunity for me to visit it a second time, to visit a second time RAF Hendon (I was so surprised to see all aircraft in these hangars and I need to make others pics than I have made - for me it is the best aeronautical Museum I have visited in my life), to spot at London-City and London-Heathrow for the first time !

November,10 : London - RAF Hendon Museum

Well, these are the first pics of RAF Hendon Museum : a beautiful site with just 3 aircraft outside (2 are replicas)

Wow! It took you a lot of time to get them all at Scramble, but it's worth every second. I always wanted to go there, but now I have to go there definitely. No question marks left. Thanks.

Thanks and you are welcome Ronald ;)
I have not finished to send and during my visit I have missed one Hangard (WW I aircraft) and any planes are not easy to make pics. I need to return but I don't know when to finalize this beautiful Museum :)
