Midland Air Museum

Museums

as part of my quest to visit all UK air museums, i decided to pop along to another “on the list”

Midland Air Museum is another fairly small but well stocked museum. it had some great exhibits not seen in other museums so was well worth the 7 hour round trip. although in need of a big tidy up and general looking after, i was not disappointed.

I’m going to start this off with an airframe I don’t recall seeing in any museum I have visited to date. a stunning and surprisingly large airframe.

McDonnell F-101B voodoo 56-0312

this was displayed in its Canadian air force markings.
