I work as a volunteer at Brooklands Museum in Weybridge. This is situated at Brooklands Road, Weybridge, Surrey, on the site of the Vickers Aircraft factory. Aircraft types here in the museum, built here from 1911 onwards, include the Wellington, Varsity, Viscount, Vanguard and VC10. My interests here are in aviation and archives, though much of the museum is about pre-war motor car racing at the historic Brookland circuit.
I have visited many museums shown below and in time I will add some of my photos from them:
Royal Malaysian Air Force Museum (my photos)
RAF Museum, Cosford - This has a number of former British Airways aircraft including a V700 Viscount, BAC-111, VC10 and Boeing 707
Mid-Hants Railway - Watercress Line
