The War Museum is a good visit, and not that far from central london, just on the south side of the Thames.

Try and go to Old Warden near Biggleswade.
It's an old aerodrome with a grass runway. Anywhere that has Biggles in the name has my vote. http://www.shuttleworth.org/gallery.asp Better still, buy myself and my lady a firkin of beer and we'll take you there ourselves Best Regards, MB_Avro. |

Very easy dive and very accessible from the shore of the harbor... EDIT: Oups - old thread but I stand by my advice for other people visiting Malta And there is a Blenheim and a Beaufighter amongst other aircraft out in the ocean... Rather deep though in most cases...

Best aviation museums:-
Duxford near Cambridge, may even be flying displays, check their program http://www.iwm.org.uk/visits/iwm-duxford Hendon is nearer to London http://www.aviationmuseum.eu/World/E...rce_Museum.htm If you are near the South Coast, Tangmere Aviation Museum near Chichester is fairly small but a gem. I'll put you in our Lightning Simulator http://www.tangmere-museum.org.uk/
