Museum of Flight

We were staying at Tower Farm near Dunbar for New Year, so it seemed natural to pop up to the Museum of Flight at East Fortune for the afternoon...
The hall Concorde is only a few inches bigger than the plane so it's hard to capture it's iconic shapes, so I experimented shooting lots of detail instead... See if it works for you!

	The cockpit of Concorde.
	The Concorde at East Fortune was the first to fly with BA, and bore the callsign "Alpha Alpha", seen here on the nosewheel hatch.
	Main landing gear.
	Main gear bay.
	Detail on landing gear.
	Obscure warning.
	Message received and understood.
	Access hatch.
	Tail wheel. There to stop the tail hitting the runway if the pilot gets it wrong...
	Why have a panel you can't remove...
	The full callsign of "Alpha Alpha".
	The underside of the engine cowling.
	Landing gear detail.
	A model, amd the real thing.
	Rolls Royce Olympus engine from Concorde.
	More engine detail.
	The front fan on one of the engines.
	Static Port. These are much easier to find than the Mobile Ports.
	This caption is open to misinterpretation given the panel is associated with the toilet system.
	Delta wing, 4 Rolls Royce Olympus engines, not it's not Concorde, its a Vulcan bomber.
	This is Vulcan XM-597.
	For many years a part of our Nuclear deterrent, and this particular airframe flew two missions during the Falklands conflict - hence the refuelling probe.
	I'd recommend "Vulcan 603", a book about the Vulcans involvement in the falklands to anyone with an interest in military aviation - gripping stuff!
	The rather obvious warning on the back end of... a rocket!
